Another great experience with this wine, my first time trying the 2020 vintage of the Kiedricher Turmberg from Robert Weil in the Rheingau - pictured here unceremoniously in my recycling bin. The nose is effusive, outgoing, and the palate has enormous presence, a huge rod of sparkling, metallic acidity with incredible flavours of lime, green apple, grapefruit, and white pepper.

The finish is long, and packs the sort of punch you enjoy from such high quality Rheingau riesling. Immaculate stuff.

This gorgeous wine was flat out AWESOME!!!
I've always liked this vintage and #Weil nailed it was classic examples of balanced #Rieslings from a big ripe, but not too ripe, vintage. This #KiedrichTurmberg was so perfectly integrated between acidity and sweetness that it never came off as top-heavy or cloying in the least--this is AMBROSIA!!! #2009 #RobertWeil #Rheingau #Rieslinglover

Sporting a killer nose that could only be German, leaping out of the glass with youthful vigour is the Kiedrich Turmberg 1er Lage Trocken from Weingut Robert Weil, a drop-dead gorgeous riesling from the Rheingau.

With great minerality, the nose features aromas of oyster shell, the freshest of lime zest, peach, cardamom, faint petrol and fresh cream. It’s a wine you can sniff for ages, but then it’s got somewhere to be. It veritably explodes in the mouth, that lime returning with a tongue-full of acidity and razor-sharp precision. Flecks of white pepper add a slight element of spice, while it races through the palate to a long, bone-dry finish.

A powerful, chiselled example of Riesling trocken. — 3 years ago

1959 Auslese for how much?! There is something truly unique and precious about a wine that has never left its place of origin... it's what some call provenance.
This now defunct #Rheingau estate was at this time on top of its game and produced some of the finest #Rieslings from #GrandCru vineyard sites in #Eltville and #Kiedrich. Eltviller #Kalbspflicht Riesling #Auslese from Jacob Fischer Erben was so fresh and lively that the closet guess was 1976!
Where else can you find such a phenomenal wine from an awesome year that is pushing 60 years of age for $250 in a restaurant???
NOWHERE!!! #JacobFischerErben #GermanWine #Rieslinglover — 9 years ago

Tropical fruit underneath the predominant apricot, but lacking the intensity of the Grafenberg which I wanted. — 7 years ago
