(By Request) 2009 Robert Weil Kiedricher Grafenberg Riesling Erstes Gewachs Rheingau JR17.5
Somehow the 2009 did not hit me like the 2008. The spirity character on the nose is clean enough and expresses ripeness. Maybe it is a little more closed on the palate, there can be no doubt about the mouthfeel of depth and concentration. Just a glimpse of Mandarine Napoleon fruit with spot-on acidity promises but does not quite deliver the same excitement as last year. Mea culpa?
