Based in the town of Kiedrich, Weil's wines are fuelled by the three epic, high altitude, south facing vineyards of Klosterberg, Turmberg and most famously, Gräfenberg, all situated in the foothills of the Taunus Mountains. From these historic sites, Wilhelm Weil, a pioneer of 'earth to glass' wine growing, guides Rheingau Riesling to its most seamless, precise expression and in doing so produces some of the world's most inspirational Rieslings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile Wilhelm Weil's meticulous, everything by hand, berry by berry, approach, is a key factor in understanding the remarkable precision of these wines, it is, as always, the vineyards that dictate the ultimate quality and personality of the wines produced. These steep, stony, mineral rich vineyards are managed in order to maximise their terroir. Herbicides are never used, and as the aim here is to encourage life in the soil, only organic manure is applied and cover crops are grown to add to the organic matter. Grapes are harvested by hand with as many as 17 passes through the vineyard, ensuring only the most pristine and perfectly ripe grapes make it into each wine. In the winery all fruit receives a pre-ferment maceration, typically between 6-24 hours (or a lengthy 72 hours for the Erstes Gewächs). There is a very gentle pressing of whole berries, the musts are allowed to start fermenting naturally and spend varying time on lees subject to the cuvée.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rheingau was historically Germany's most revered vineyard region and once produced the world's most expensive wines. You only need to glance at a wine map of Germany to see why. This is Riesling's Côte d'Or; a series of sheer, south facing, rocky slopes that maximise exposure to the sun and protect the vines from the bitter northern winds. It is this confluence of natural elements that enables Riesling to perfectly ripen at this very marginal, northern climate. With some of the highest (up to 780 ft ASL) and most revered vineyards in the region, Robert Weil is today the superstar of the Rheingau. - Importer Note\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bibendum Wine Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32360714305581,"sku":"11994","price":72.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/products\/POS-DGOU0265.jpg?v=1754980621"},{"product_id":"joh-jos-prum-graacher-himmelreich-auslese-goldkapsel-riesling-2022","title":"Joh Jos Prum Graacher Himmelreich Auslese Goldkapsel Riesling 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Mosel River Valley is probably the most famous and arguably the most admired wine region of Germany.

Because it is so rocky, it escaped the Flurbereinigung of 1992, when vineyard holdings were rationalised, new roads built and an enormous amount of replanting was done.

Prum vineyards all border each other along the same riverbank and share roughly the same soils (Devonian slate), each site has subtle, yet important differences that results in quite distinctive styles of wine. We'll try to address each of these below. Let's follow each site in order from North to South starting with Zeltinger and ending with Bernkastel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Importer Note\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bibendum Wine Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52381143564598,"sku":"18180","price":165.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/products\/POS-PhotoRoom_20200904_162829.jpg?v=1754978562"},{"product_id":"von-winning-drache-trocken-riesling","title":"Von Winning Drache Trocken Riesling 2023","description":"","brand":"Fox Wine Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52911399436598,"sku":"18287","price":49.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/files\/Photoroom-20250901_201118_21.png?v=1756883613"},{"product_id":"fritz-haag-juffer-feinherb-riesling","title":"Fritz Haag Juffer Feinherb Riesling 2023","description":"","brand":"VINTAGE AND VINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52923881029942,"sku":"18297","price":52.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/files\/Photoroom-20250904_170845_5.png?v=1756969940"},{"product_id":"keller-abst-erde-riesling-gg-2023","title":"Keller Abst Erde Riesling GG 2023","description":"","brand":"HEART and SOIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53217764835638,"sku":"18459","price":826.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/files\/Photoroom-20251103_182857_4.png?v=1762155267"},{"product_id":"keller-morstein-riesling-gg","title":"Keller Morstein Riesling GG 2023","description":"","brand":"HEART and SOIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53217958461750,"sku":"18460","price":1562.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/files\/Photoroom-20251103_182857_5.png?v=1762155357"},{"product_id":"max-sein-wein-3-taler-sylvaner","title":"Max Sein Wein 3 Taler Sylvaner 2022","description":"","brand":"LoFi Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53648223043894,"sku":"18643","price":58.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/files\/PXL_20260211_052641322-Photoroom.png?v=1770852240"},{"product_id":"van-volxem-schiefer-riesling","title":"Van Volxem Schiefer Riesling 2023","description":"","brand":"Fox Wine Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53789461643574,"sku":"10744","price":52.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4054\/6861\/files\/PXL_20260318_043017607-Photoroom.png?v=1773878088"},{"product_id":"julian-haart-old-vines-kabinett-riesling-2024","title":"Julian Haart Old Vines Kabinett Riesling 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen a winemaker learns from the best it's hard to think they're not going to be the next big thing. Julian Haart has worked and learnt from Egon Muller and Klaus Peter Keller, who need no introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBased in Piesport, in the heartland of the Mosel Valley, Julian Haart is the young star of German winemaking. His wine education could scarcely have been more illustrious, working with Heymann-Löwenstein for a year, Emrich Schönleber for two and a half years, Egon Müller for a year, and Klaus Peter Keller for three years. On his return to Piesport, he took over a small half-hectare plot in the Wintricher Ohligsberg, planted with 50-yearold vines, followed by a hectare in the Piesporter Schubertslay, a unique plot with vines planted in 1904 on original rootstocks. Because it is so rocky, it escaped the Flurbereinigung of 1992, when vineyard holdings were rationalised, new roads built and an enormous amount of replanting was done. The estate has grown to a little more than four hectares and this is, roughly, where Julian wants it to stay. Part of the joy of winemaking, for Julian, is doing everything himself, or with his wife Nadine, or with some friends. This is vineyard work, and winemaking, at the most human scale. Nearly everything must be done by hand ‚– most of the vineyards are steep as hell and most of them are terraced. Even walking through them is a bit hazardous. His goal is to make superlative dry wines, but they are brilliant and elegant across the entire range. He is striving for vineyard expression rather than just fruit; fermentation is allowed to start naturally, and the cellar temperature is kept at a steady 20°C.
