Robert Weil - Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese 2011 - 0,75 l

Robert Weil’s 2011 Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese is a rare, intensely concentrated sweet wine from one of the Rheingau’s most respected estates and vineyard sites. Made from individually selected, noble-rot-affected Riesling berries, it combines remarkable richness with the vibrant acidity that gives great German Riesling its longevity.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays a luminous golden-yellow colour. Its expressive bouquet reveals layers of ripe peach, apricot, honey and candied fruit, with the noble-rot character adding depth and complexity. On the palate, it is rich and sweet yet remarkably fresh, supported by lively Riesling acidity and a subtle mineral nuance. The finish is exceptionally long and persistent, with the balance and concentration to develop beautifully over many years—if well stored, this is a wine capable of ageing for decades.

Production
The grapes come from the steep slopes of Kiedricher Gräfenberg in the Rheingau, where Riesling benefits from excellent exposure and mineral-rich soils. For this Trockenbeerenauslese, the berries were hand-selected at advanced ripeness after being affected by Botrytis cinerea, or noble rot. This naturally dehydrates the grapes and concentrates their sugars, flavours and acidity, creating the sumptuous intensity associated with Germany’s finest sweet wines.

Food & Serving
Enjoy this Trockenbeerenauslese lightly chilled at approximately 8–10°C. It is an elegant match for fruit-based desserts, apricot or peach tart, crème brûlée and blue or mature cheeses, while its acidity also makes it a rewarding partner for foie gras or gently spiced Asian cuisine. Decanting is generally unnecessary, although carefully opening the bottle shortly before serving can allow its aromas to unfold; older bottles should be handled gently and, if needed, separated from any sediment.
