The Robert Weil line of estate wines begins with this medium-bodied dry Riesling that shows the typical density and power of the Rheingau region, but is more affordable than the ultra-classy single-vineyard wines. The Riesling Trocken is pure and intense, with a stony richness and a lively, well-balanced structure.

Predominantly vinified in stainless steel with a 5% part fermented in large oak, the 2020 Rheingau Riesling Trocken offers a clear and intense yet coolish and fresh bouquet of perfectly ripe stone fruits. Full-bodied, round and juicy on the palate, this is a mouthful of elegant, refined and stimulatingly salty Riesling on a highly respectable level. The finish is piquant and sustainable. This 2020 Rheingau Riesling drinks perfectly today but can be aged for 10 to 20 years easily. Bottled in early spring, this is a Best Buy of the vintage with impressive energy and sustainability. Tasted at the domain in August 2021. 90pts Robert Parker
