This cuvée is a blend of fruit from Weil’s high-altitude sites dotted around the village of Kiedrich. These vineyards include the brilliantly named Sandgrub vineyard and there’s also a good dollop from Wasseros, a steep, southwest-facing vineyard that abuts the Gräfenberg vines. The soils of these sites are typically composed of stony, fragmented phyllite interlaced with loess and loam. At this level, the wine is vinified in stainless steel with roughly 5% fermented in large oak.

Reviews

“Full white-peach fruit on the nose and the generous palate, this is a prototypical example of the increased ambition many leading producers are applying to the wines of this humble category. Beautiful balance at the long, very elegant finish.”

“The 2022 Riesling Trocken opens with a clear and ripe nose that is not as brilliant as in the years before. The fruit is ripe; it definitely sawn the sun and was picked ripe. This leads to a quite rich and mouth-filling palate (23 grams per liter of sugar-free extract) with good body and very fresh and racy acidity. The wine is elegant, mineral and forceful, with remarkable freshness from a supposedly coolish year.”
88+ points, Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate
“The 2022 Riesling Rheingau is the estate wine, harvested mainly in Kiedrich with small additions from Hallgarten. It was fermented in 95%stainless steel and 5% in large barrel. The nose is restrained but shows a ripe glimpse of stone fruit. The palate is slender but has restrained substance, all framed by vivid citrus. Squeaky clean and balanced, there's a lovely citric tang on the finish. The 2022 is harmonious and dry. (Bone-dry).”
