Rausch Riesling Spätlese – from VDP. Winery Zilliken

The Zilliken Rausch Riesling Spätlese 2019 is a fruit-sweet, graceful Riesling from the VDP.GROSSE LAGE of Saarburger Rausch. The finely fruity, juicy and invigorating Saar-Riesling from Weingut Forstmeister Geltz Zilliken is elegant and lean, full of minerality, with restrained fruit. Laser-sharp lime zest and candied oranges provide dazzlingly clear contours and rein in the natural sweetness to 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.

Rausch Riesling Spätlese 2019 – a wine and its values

  • 8% alcohol
  • 86.4 g/l residual sugar
  • 6.9 g/l acidity
  • 95 points Mosel Fine Wines

The long finish reveals the concentration of the Zilliken Riesling Spätlese. On the palate, the Riesling Spätlese feels weightless. With a moderate alcohol content of 8%, it is an ideal companion to light dishes with chicken or fish, to sushi or scallops, or to spicy Asian cuisine. Even if it's already delightful when young, it only shows its full potential after 7-12 years of bottle aging. Try it; we also have aged Riesling Spätlesen from Weingut Forstmeister Geltz Zilliken in stock.

By the way, our cellar 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 2019 vintage on the Saar

The 2019 vintage was a year with challenging weather conditions: the winter was dry, budbreak was early, in April frost hit a low-lying parcel in Rausch, in the hot summer the mulch layer between the vines proved its worth and prevented drought stress, the extremely hot days around 40 degrees then caused sunburn on some grapes. Therefore, during the autumn harvest, care was taken to select healthy grapes, and there was strong selection. Despite all the weather vagaries and low yields, 2019 was a year with a high average temperature, and the result was ripe grapes. With its fine fruit, vibrant ripe acidity, and classic, mineral Saar spiciness, this Zilliken Riesling Spätlese already offers great drinking pleasure. The wines from the VDP.GROSSE LAGE Rausch of the 2019 vintage have great aging potential.
