Monte Nostrum comes from one isolated parcel at the highest and coolest point of Kiedrich Berg, a site chosen for its ability to produce Riesling with natural tension, precision and longevity.

Founded in 1875, Weingut Robert Weil helped define Rheingau as a world-class region, and nowadays one of the top wineries in Germany. His wines were historically served at European Royal Courts, cementing the estate’s international reputation.

Sourced directly from France, Monte Nostrum is exclusively offered via La Place de Bordeaux. This is a pre-arrival release, with dispatch estimated from June 2026 onwards.

Critic Scores

99 // James Suckling

"This super-racy and super-mineral dry riesling with its extremely fine white peach, wild flower and herb aromas is an archetypical expression of the steep, high-altitude vineyards of Kiedrich. Stunning crystalline finish that takes your breath away and pulls you inexorably back to the glass for more of this elixir that’s simultaneously strong and delicate. This wine used to be marketed under the name Burg Scharfensteiner. Great aging potential. Drink from release."

98 // Yves Beck

"The grapes dedicated to Monte Nostrum come from the highest and coolest parcels of the Kiedricher Berg [Hill of Kiedrich]. They are located between Turmberg and Gräfenberg and stretch along the ridge for almost a kilometer. The terroir is characterized by barren phyllite slate soils, good sun exposure and optimal aeration. The bouquet is complex and clearly subtle. It reveals notes of dried fruit, pears, verbena and fennel. The minerality is underlined by chalky note. The slightly salty attack heralds a juicy and lively wine. It combines temperament, depth and pleasure and is characterized by its density and tension. Monte Nostrum is full-bodied and has tannins that not only support but also stretch the finish. A remarkable, persistent and full-bodied wine that deserves some cellar ageing. Drink from 2026 - 2047."

96 // Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"The 2022 Monte Nostrum follows the Burg Scharfensteiner and is congruent with this former cru whose name was canceled in 1971 and re-introduced with the 2020, yet it had to change its name due to German impeachment. The name goes back to a document from 1160 that has the Schaufenstein castle named as Castellum Monti, but this name also couldn't be used due to another veto, now from Italy. However, Monte Nostrum is the legally accepted name now, and it's a good complement to the prestigious Monte Vacano from a special plot in the Gräfenberg. The Monte Nostrum Riesling is sourced from the upper part of the Turmberg, so on pure phyllite slate, and will be sold exclusively via negociants in Bordeaux for at least 69 euros starting in September 2024. The 2022 opens with a pure, refined and coolish, stony/saline and citric bouquet of crushed stones and is remarkably precise. Lean, refined and elegant on the palate but also dense and intense, this is a pure, vibrantly fresh and mineral, savory and seriously structured Riesling from Kiedrich's coolest spot outside the forest. Sharp as a knife, it is an incomparable, very long and even concentrated yet never big or fleshy Rheingau Riesling with no similarity to any other location in the Rheingau but maybe to the Saar (Wiltingen) or, as Wei(more...)"

19 // WeinWisser

"Last but not least, in late October, we were even able to select the longed-for raisins in the vineyard, so we once again have all quality levels, including Trockenbeerenauslese, in the cellar, albeit only in very small quantities, now for the 34th year in a row." In summer this year, Weil was very enthusiastic about the wines, which he thinks are better and longer-lived than anything else he has bottled so far. "Our children will enjoy the 2022s for a long time to come," he believes. However, I was not quite as exuberant, even though I really like the slender, racy and delicately fruity style of the 2022 Rieslings, but it remains to be seen whether the vintage will surpass all previous vintages. Given the challenges of the vintage, however, Weil's 2022s exceed expectations, so the king of the Kiedrich mountain can continue to calmly look down on his kingdom, which is likely to be ruled by his children in the not too distant future. - Tjark Witzgall"
