Rausch Riesling Spätlese – Wine from Zilliken on the Saar

The Zilliken Rausch Riesling Spätlese 2018 is a fruity sweet, graceful Riesling from the VDP.GROSSE LAGE, the Saarburger Rausch. The finely fruity, juicy and invigorating Saar Riesling from Weingut Forstmeister Geltz Zilliken is slender and elegant, full of minerality, and restrained in fruit. Laser-sharp lime zest and candied oranges provide dazzlingly clear contours and temper the natural sweetness into a unique, impressive balance. Over time, the aromas of the Riesling Spätlese develop into the ripe, multifaceted juiciness of apricots, apples and melons, ending in a delicately salty kiss.

The long finish reveals the concentration of the Zilliken Riesling Spätlese. On the tongue, the wine feels weightless. With a moderate alcohol content of 7.5%, it is an ideal companion to light dishes with chicken or fish, sushi or scallops, or spicy Asian cuisine. Even if the Riesling Spätlese is already captivating when young, it only truly shows its full potential after 7-12 years of bottle aging. Try it out, we also have aged Riesling Spätlese from Weingut Forstmeister Geltz Zilliken in stock.

Incidentally, our warehouse is cooled in summer and heated in winter by a geothermal heat pump powered by a photovoltaic system, so that the wine can mature optimally.

Weingut Zilliken – the 2018 wine year on the Saar

2018 was a century summer in Germany with countless hours of sunshine. A sunny summer without great heat, which did not cause drought stress for the vines, which were able to enjoy ample rain in May. Due to the consistently sunny weather, the harvest began unusually early, on September 24th. "Rarely were the vineyards full of such golden grapes," Dorothee Zilliken tells us. The fantastic autumn enabled the individual berry selection for noble sweet Rieslings, like this Zilliken Riesling Spätlese 2018. The dry Rieslings from 2018 are juicy, mineral, and approachable – tropical aromas paired with classic Saar elegance.
