Robert Weil's Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Eiswein 2000 is a high-quality and incomparably refined sweet wine that captures the essence of its terroir and the precision of a top vintage. In a year known for its balance and excellent conditions for noble sweet wines, this Eiswein demonstrates an impressive balance between sweetness, acidity, and mineral depth.

The bouquet is overwhelmingly complex, with intense aromas of candied citrus fruits, ripe peaches, apricots, and exotic notes of pineapple and passion fruit. Added to this are honey, delicate floral aromas, a hint of ginger, and mineral notes reminiscent of wet slate, making the Gräfenberg origins unmistakable.

On the palate, an incredible concentration unfolds, yet is accompanied by a light, almost floating elegance. The sweetness is opulent and dense, but never overwhelming, as the crisp, vibrant acidity keeps the wine in perfect balance. The fruit is highly concentrated, with notes of candied lime, dried apricots, and a hint of crème brûlée, accompanied by a saline minerality that adds additional depth. The finish is seemingly endless, with a clear, fresh, and elegant presence that lingers long.

This 2000 ice wine is a prime example of the quality and longevity of Robert Weil's wines. It will gain complexity over the decades and is already a true gem, representing the pinnacle of German sweet winemaking.
