Robert Weil Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Beerenauslese 375ml 2024

100 POINTS

Vinous

The 2024 Riesling Kiedricher Gräfenberg Trockenbeerenauslese was harvested in the most minimal qualities out of sheer determination. Its light amber hue shines in the glass while candied apricot blends with candied lemon on the nose before its zestiness takes the lead. Thrilling purity and acidity make this laser-like and unrelenting in its driven energy. It is like airy, spun gold of acidity and fruit, like sweetness refracted through sunlight. The 2024 is superb, otherworldly and absolutely intense. Its 2.5 g/L of acidity dazzle and illuminate 210 g/L of residual sugar. (Luscious)

Vinous

The 2024 Riesling Kiedricher Gräfenberg Beerenauslese was made from shriveled grapes without botrytis. It is luminous with a light amber hue. Ripe peach, orange peel and passion fruit aromas enliven the nose. Supple lift drives its perfume home and heavenwards. The palate is intense, candied, pure, lemony and so vivid. The sharpest touch of acid is like a laser beam, creating unrelenting precision, clarity and concentration. This is absolutely intense and slender. It is the picture of purity at around 170 g/L of residual sugar. (Sweet)

The term nectar of the Gods comes to mind; perhaps the Weil TBA can possibly live forever, but even in its youth, it's showing beautifully. Sweet peach ring candy aromas, candied orange peel and unctuous wafts of clover honey. On the palate, it's a combination of gorgeously etched minerality and a lifted brilliance that carries ripe stone fruits and stunning lemon-curd intensity. From fully dried, botrytized fruit from the heart of the Weil's most select crus. A true thing of beauty.

A great riesling TBA with everything we want from this category, beginning with the combination of brilliance and concentration, but extending through finesse and purity, this proves that, although it was very difficult to produce wines of this category in 2024, it was not impossible. The aromas reach from peach chutney to papaya via passion fruit and tropical flowers. From organically grown grapes. Vegan.

Stephan Reinhardt - Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The shining golden-colored 2024 Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese is a beautifully flavored TBA with great precision on the nose and palate. Rich and round but enormously vital and also saline on the palate, this is a lemony fresh, zesty and highly refined TBA that has a rare digestibility for a TBA predicate. It is highly stimulating. 8% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in August 2025.

With it’s intense mango-chutney character, this is a cool and super-focused BA that has terrific energy and an acidity that could wake the dead on the compact, medium- to full-bodied palate. Stacks of spicy complexity at the extremely long, beautifully balanced finish. Enormous aging potential. From organically grown grapes. Vegan.
