Zilliken Saarburger Rausch Riesling GG Trocken (2018)

Product Description

Zilliken Saarburger Rausch Riesling GG Trocken (2018) Delicate aromas of ripe melon, lemon curd and meadow flowers and a cool herbal austerity open a nose of breathtaking beauty and elegance. Deep yet refined orange, passion fruit and candied lemon dance nimbly across the nearly vertical palate, while the grippy texture is redeemed by a pliable, persistent acidity. And the stunning saline and lemon-laced finish is so long that it’s hard to remember a time it didn’t exist. A fairytale wine in a fairytale vintage. One need not lay it down as long as Sleeping Beauty, but we do recommend at least 7-10 years before waking it with a kiss.

Wine Enthusiast

This dry bottling from its famed Saarburger Rausch vineyard, this is a sleek, hauntingly concentrated wine. While light in body, it’s a ripe, almost cream-textured Riesling layered with luscious white peach, grapefruit and gooseberry flavors. Reflective of the vintage, it’s a distinctly richer, more extracted expression of the Saar, yet maintains a steely, earthen edge. Approachable now but should improve through 2035 and hold longer still.
