Product Notes

Weingut Robert Weil Kiedricher Turmberg Riesling Trocken is a distinct German wine from the Rhine region, boasting an impressive balance of freshness and complexity. Its nose reveals a bouquet of enticing green apple and citrus notes, followed by a subtle hint of minerality. The palate is greeted with an unusual but pleasant dryness, the signature trait of a Trocken wine. This Riesling showcases the intricate artistry of Weingut Robert Weil, making it a must-have for the collectors of aromatic wines with an edge of sophistication. It's a superb companion for seafood and mild cheeses. Cheers to its lingering finish!

Tasting Notes

The exceptional micro-climate of this south-southwest facing vineyard boasts warm temperatures, long exposure and good wind protection - which in turn leads to a long hang time for the grapes; taken together with the craggy phyllite soils, the result is small, intense and flavourful berries, and dry wines marked by extreme minerality, nuanced complexity, and an unparalleled grace and elegance.
