Weingut Robert Weil Riesling Trocken 750 ML

Wine & Spirits 91 points - An austere riesling, this recalls an Agnes Martin painting in its spare white-on-white flavors and clean lines. It’s firm and stony, with a radish-like spice that sparks the white-apple-flesh flavors. For crudo..February/2019 Vinous 88 points - A slightly high-toned nose hints at pear and floral distillates, along with prickly hints of lime peel and radish. The feel is firm and the finish, happily, clear and freshly juicy, with lime zest and pear pip harnessed in the interest of invigoration. (For information on the sources of Weil generic bottlings, consult my review of this wine’s vintage 2015 predecessor.).August/2019 James Suckling 91 points - The slight hint of funk in the nose that quickly turns into a flinty note, announces a change of style at this famous estate. Perhaps the sugar levels weren’t high. Yet, this is rather bold as well as very crisp. Discreet, white-fruit character and quite a salty mineral finish. Drink now..September/2018
