The vines on this steep, four-hectare vineyard are now between 40 and 60 years old. At up to 300 metres, this is the highest of the three Weil hillside sites, yet thanks to its southern aspect and deeper, iron-rich weathered slate soils, it also produces the most opulent and seductive of these wines (when young). The Weil team often use the term ‘baroque’ when describing wines from Klosterberg, in reference to the lift and generosity. Like all of Weil’s single site ‘22s, this wine was raised entirely in doppelstückfass and aged on full lees for ten months before bottling. While the Klosterberg shares some similarities in character with the Kiedricher wine, you always get a kick up in intensity, complexity and drive at the finish.

Reviews

“A super elegant dry Rheingau riesling with a wonderful interplay of white tree fruits, racy acidity and delicate creaminess from long sur lie maturation, these elements interlocking beautifully on the precisely contoured medium-bodied palate. Very cool and long finish with white tea, wet stone and wild berry notes.”

“The 2022 Kiedrich Klosterberg Riesling Trocken was fermented with natural yeasts and kept on the original lees in large oak casks until the bottling. The bouquet is deep, intense and very elegant as well as complex and clearly characterized by its phyllite soils with a reddish loess loam mixture. On the palate this is a supple, elegant, mouth-filling and rich Riesling with ripe, mineral acidity and a long, saline, savory and complex finish. It is long and intense and provided with great aging potential. 13% stated alcohol.”
