Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese 2001

The Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese 2001 from Robert Weil is a truly majestic wine that embodies the uniqueness of its terroir and the outstanding quality of the vintage. The nose unfolds with a fascinating interplay of aromas of ripe stone fruits such as apricots and peaches, underscored by candied citrus fruits, honey, and a hint of exotic fruits such as pineapple. Subtle floral notes and a fine mineral touch reminiscent of wet slate add further complexity to the bouquet.
On the palate, the Auslese presents an impressive balance between intense sweetness and lively acidity. The texture is dense yet elegant, almost floating, with incredible purity of fruit. Honey notes are accompanied by a vibrant freshness that lends the wine structure and length. The long, seemingly endless finish reveals mineral nuances and a subtle spiciness that underscore the potential of this exceptional Riesling.
2001 is considered one of the finest vintages in the Rheingau's recent history, and this wine is an outstanding example of the longevity and class that characterizes Robert Weil's Auslesen. With its already impressive maturity, it will continue to gain complexity and depth in the coming decades.
