Forstmeister Geltz Zilliken Rausch Riesling Auslese 2018

HED30495 75cl 8%
Weingut Forstmeister Geltz Zilliken (often abbreviated simply to “Zilliken”) is run by 10th-generation winemaker, Hans-Joachim Zilliken. With focus exclusively on Riesling, they produce wine at all levels, from Gutswein (entry level) to Ortswein (village) and Grosse Lage (single vineyard) from 100% estate-grown fruit.

From the superb 2018 vintage comes this delicious late-harvested Riesling. Using fruit hand-harvested from the Rauch Erste Lage vineyard, it was vinified 100% in neutral foudre barrels and has 103.5g/L residual sugar. This is a highly terroir-driven wine with complex notes of exotic fruits, smoky minerality and fragrant hints of lily and rose. Focused acidity lends welcome zip and suggests this could be a superb cellaring option.
