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 much more affordable than their ultra-classy single-vineyard wines. Produced in large, neutral oak casks for a rounder texture, the Riesling Trocken (German for “dry”) is a charming, fruit-driven wine, whose balanced, tangy flavors and food-friendly versatility mean that one glass is never quite enough.
Delicate fruits in the nose are followed by a graceful, smooth acidity and full-bodied flavors; a simply delicious Riesling to be welcomed at every table and occasion, and as at home with a wide variety of cuisines as in a quality glass on its own.
Wine Advocate 89+: Robert Weil's 2023 Rheingau Riesling Trocken is clear, elegant and quite intense on the well-balanced nose that reveals ripe and fleshy fruit aromas with only a nuance of flintiness. Elegant, refined and quite lush on the palate, this is a mouth-filling, delicately saline and grippy dry estate wine with good extract (22-23 grams per liter) and intense length. It's stimulating and already a pleasure to drink. 11.8% de facto alcohol. Screw cap. Tasted at the domaine in August 2024.
James Suckling 92: This very successful entry-level dry Rheingau riesling marries white peaches, lemons and white currant fruit with wet stone minerality, elegant acidity and fine tannins on the barely medium-bodied palate to create a captivating composition. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
Wine Advocate 90: The 2024 Rheingau Riesling Trocken is clear, refined and coolish on the elegant nose, with grassy and flinty notes as well as white fruit aromas and just an idea of yellow stone fruits. Vinified predominantly in stainless steel (95%), the wine is round and tastes almost off-dry on the palate, which makes it very pleasant and digestible already at this early stage. This is a delicious, frisky Riesling for many occasions. 12% stated alcohol. Screw-cap closure. Tasted from AP 07 25 in August 2025.
James Suckling 90: Sleek, cool and lively on the barely medium-bodied palate, this entry-level dry Rheingau riesling shows good juiciness (think yellow apples and lemons), the crisp acidity married to fresh mint aromas. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
Falstaff 91: Fine aroma, lemon balm, chervil, mint, fresh mandarins, lemon zest, subtle wet notes. Lean, juicy and fresh on the palate, lively acidity balances the subtle hint of sweetness, citrus fruit, green apple with a mineral in the background, animating with good length.
