FIRST RELEASE – ROBERT WEIL – SUPERSTAR OF THE RHEINGAU RIESLING 2ND MAY

Attention all Riesling aficionados! We invite you to an exceptional evening at The Wine Library on the 2nd of May, where we will be indulging in some of the finest wines from Robert Weil, the unrivaled superstar of the Rheingau. This historic region has long been revered for producing some of the world’s most expensive and sought-after wines, with Riesling taking center stage. The south-facing, rocky slopes that dominate the landscape provide optimal sun exposure and protect the vines from cold northern winds, allowing Riesling to thrive and reach optimal ripeness in the northern climate.

Located in the charming town of Kiedrich, Robert Weil is considered the pinnacle of Rheingau winemaking. The estate is blessed with three high-altitude, south-facing vineyards in Klosterberg, Turmberg, and Gräfenberg, all of which produce exceptional Rieslings. Wilhelm Weil, a pioneer of “earth to glass” wine growing, is dedicated to crafting Rieslings that showcase the unique expression of their origins and style. His wines are celebrated worldwide as some of the most inspiring and seamless examples of Riesling.

This amazing night will be hosted at The Wine Library, a beloved institution among wine lovers. The cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere of this venue is the perfect setting for an evening of Riesling tasting and mingling with fellow wine enthusiasts. You can look forward to experiencing the full range of Robert Weil’s exceptional Rieslings in the company of like-minded connoisseurs. Come join us for an evening that promises to be nothing short of extraordinary!
