Description
"Weil’s village Riesling is a blend of first-picked parcels from the classified hillside estate sites of Klosterberg, Turmberg and Gräfenberg, as well as a measure of Wasseros fruit. As you would expect from such terroir, it is a step up from the entry wine, with more texture and power and considerably rockier mineral intensity. Accordingly, one-third of the wine is raised in large Stockinger Doppelstückfass (wooden cask) for six months." - Importer's Notes
"The 2023 Riesling Kiedricher is from the younger vines of the Turmberg, Klosterberg and Gräfenberg, as well as the elevated Wasseros with its exquisite water availability. This was made two-thirds in stainless steel and one-third in large-format wood. Green apple peel on the nose comes with a zesty edge, promising spice and raciness. The palate is juicier than the nose suggests, adding dripping white peach ripeness and rounding out with lemony verve. (Bone-dry)" - 91 points, Anne Krebiehl MW
