2018 "Kiedrich Gräfenberg" Riesling trocken GG,
Weingut Robert Weil

„Grand Cru von deutschem Boden“, der die qualitative Spitze der trockenen Weine im Weingut darstellt; vielschichtige Struktur und Mineralität; ein „Kraftpaket“ mit komplexen Fruchtaromen und enormem Tiefgang, ein großer trockener Riesling, der par excellence den Terroir-Gedanken verkörpert und ein langes Lagerungspotential über Jahrzehnte hat.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
The 2018 Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Trocken GG is a great dry Riesling: very juicy, intense and long, yet fresh and mineral, with remarkable finesse, structure and a persistently salty finish. The wine opens with a deep, ripe and fine, fresh and elegant Riesling bouquet with many layers and aromas that develop with aeration when mirabelle aromas start emerging and intertwine with the noble sur lie and flinty terroir notes. Vinified in large oak, this is a full-bodied, round and rich, textured Gräfenberg with a firm tannin structure and fine and ripe, mineral acidity. This is a firm and tense Riesling with reduced power, sustainable salinity and mineral freshness on the finish. 38,000 bottles were filled in July 2019. Tasted three times in autumn and winter 2019. 

James Suckling:
Super flinty aromas of wet stones and slate here with citron and candied lime, as well as a smoky and spicy edge. The wood can be felt slightly, too. The palate is so energetic and long with such smoothly delivered power and restraint. Some longer skin contact for this wine and riper grapes from this parcel deliver added weight and length. Drink or hold.
