Very cool with plenty of fresh garden herbs and delicate white peach and yellow apple aromas. This is a seriously elegant dry village wine with a pronounced mineral acidity on the focused, medium-bodied palate. Very straight, long and polished finish.

Robert Weil Kiedricher Riesling Trocken from the Rheingau is a precise, vibrant dry Riesling that offers a true snapshot of the village of Kiedrich’s unique terroir. Crafted with the same meticulous attention to detail as the estate’s top wines, it captures the lively acidity, bright citrus, and mineral energy that define the Robert Weil style—refined yet totally refreshing.
The fruit for this wine is sourced from estate-owned vineyards surrounding the historic village of Kiedrich, where the soils are dominated by stony phyllite and loess. These vineyards benefit from ideal sun exposure on steep slopes, allowing for slow, even ripening while retaining the signature acidity that gives Rheingau Riesling its edge.
Winemaker Wilhelm Weil is known for his focus on purity and precision, and that philosophy is clear in every glass. Grapes are handpicked, gently pressed, and fermented using native yeasts in stainless steel to preserve freshness and express the character of both grape and site without interference.
On the nose, it bursts with aromas of lime, green apple, white peach, and wet stone. The palate is dry, crisp, and finely balanced, with zesty citrus fruit, a taut acid line, and a clean mineral finish that lingers beautifully.
This is a versatile and approachable dry Riesling that shines with seafood, light salads, Vietnamese dishes, or simply as a chilled aperitif. It’s an ideal introduction to the pedigree and precision of one of Germany’s most respected estates.
