Parker about Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese 2003

Sporting a nose that combines aromatic characteristics typical of Beerenauslesen and Eisweins, the 2003 Riesling Auslese Kiedricher Grafenberg (non-gold cap) reveals smoky botrytis-laced yellow fruits as well as hints of lemon-laced caramels. Armed with huge richness, this deep effort has superb purity, intensity, and length. While it is somewhat heavy, like many 2003 high end German late harvest wines, it appears to have enough balancing acidity to provide lift. Projected maturity: 2008-2030 (readers should note that a Gold Cap version of this wine exists and was tasted – it sells for $500 per half-bottle – but it was so raisiny, so heavy, as well as so dominated by caramel and molasses that it is not being reviewed).

Produktbeschreibung

Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese 2003


The Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese 2003 from Weingut Robert Weil is an outstanding German white wine from the renowned Rheingau region. Weingut Robert Weil is celebrated worldwide for its benchmark Rieslings, and the 2003 vintage is an exquisite example of the quality and longevity of its noble sweet wines.

On the nose, the Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese 2003 unfolds an intense and multi-layered bouquet of ripe exotic fruits such as mango, pineapple, and passion fruit, complemented by fine aromas of honey, apricots, and candied citrus. Delicate floral notes and a hint of slate minerality lend the wine additional depth and elegance.

On the palate, the wine is opulent and concentrated, with a wonderful balance between luscious sweetness and vibrant acidity. The ripe fruit aromas carry through, supported by a lively acid backbone that imparts freshness and poise. Notes of candied fruit, blossom honey, and a subtle spice create remarkable complexity and a long, lingering finish.

The Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese 2003 is a sublime accompaniment to fine desserts such as fruit tarts, crème brûlée, or aged cheeses, and is equally captivating savoured on its own on special occasions. Having reached a magnificent stage of maturity, it still offers many years of pleasure and further evolution—an unforgettable tasting experience for lovers of noble sweet Riesling.
