2021 Robert Weil Kiedricher Riesling Trocken

91 POINTS

Stuart Pigott - James Suckling

Still youthful, but with plenty of ripe pear and white peach aromas. Sleek body with a compact structure and good concentration for this category, but still a little bit shy on the palate. Plenty of lemon zest and some baking spice at the long, firm finish. Two thirds of the cuvee was vinified in stainless steel and one third in large neutral wood. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

From the higher vineyards in Kiedrich, especially Wasseros but also younger vines from Klosterberg, Turmberg and Gräfenberg, the 2021 Kiedricher Riesling Trocken offers a clear and coolish bouquet of white and yellow-fleshed fruits. Vinified two-thirds in stainless steel and one-third in large oak, this is a round and lush, pretty generous but vivacious and piquant Riesling with intense and elegant fruit, good density and a long, saline and finely grippy finish. Still young and edgy but promising. 12.5% stated alcohol. Screw cap. Tasted in July 2022.

Here's a graceful example of a dry German Riesling that really shows the characteristics of the vintage - cool in feel, with firm acidity and a leaner profile. Try this with fried food or fattier fish.
