Note di degustazione
Candied apples, poached pears, and white flowers are found in the aromatic profile of the medium-bodied 2002 Riesling Auslese Saarburger Rausch. This pretty, pure, well-focused, yet rich and deep wine reveals loads of slate-laced white fruits in its complex, silky-textured personality. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2026. Note: This winery is typically referred to simply as “Zilliken” but is listed here under its official name. Importer: A Rudi Wiest Selection, Cellar International, Inc., Carlsbad, CA; tel.

White peach, honey and apricot in the nose. Lush and creamy, soft and caressing on the palate, yet elegant and uplifting, buoyed by abundant ripe acids. Pure fresh peach and quince jelly on the palate. The ennoblement of botrytis here is of the utmost subtlety. Shows extraordinary balance and length, with the acidity running like a low-level electrical current across the palate, energizing the wine's complex spectrum of flavors. This was harvested at the point where tiny golden berries just began to weep and shrivel, Zilliken explains. 2 stars.
