Jancis Robinson, March 2011

Peach and orange, classic, very pronounced nose. On the palate there is such a concentration of flavours that at first Spätlese does not seem to be the right category. Enter perfect measures of zesty citrus fruit and lemony acidity and you are back on course. Lively and fresh like a mountain spring. Forceful, but racy and elegant nevertheless. (MS) 18.5 out of 20

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 2011

Strong scents of heliotrope and lilac on the nose of Weils 2009 Kiedricher Grafenberg Spatlese waft onto a palate limeade- and white peach sorbet-like in its strongly-sweet, refreshing succulence. At the same time, an amalgam of chalk, salt, and alkali offers striking counterpoint. Hints of caramel and marzipan point to a ripeness enhanced vis-a-vis this collections other Spatlesen - even if there was in fact, as Wilhelm Weil maintains, no botrytis present here - and these flavors, along with suggestions of honey, mount en route to a finish seductively complex, vibrantly citric, and sensationally persistent. This should be worth following for at least 25 years. -DS

This racy white is saturated with pure apricot, peach, apple, lemon zest and mineral aromas and flavors. Light-bodied yet intense, this builds on the finish. Best from 2012 through 2032. 670 cases made. -BS

About Winery

Founded in 1875, Weingut Robert Weil is considered to be one of the Rheingau's younger wine estates. It is located in the heart of Kiedrich, a village first documented in the year 950. Kiedrich Turmberg and Kiedrich Gräfenberg, the estate's top vineyards, are among the finest sites in the Rheingau.

The estate cultivates 70 hectares (173 acres) of vineyards, of which 98 percent are planted with Riesling. Today, Wilhelm Weil, the great-grandson of the estate's founder, carries on the uncompromising, quality-oriented vineyard and cellar practices that have been the hallmark of the winery for four generations.
