Zilliken (Forstmeister Geltz) Saarburger Rausch Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel #5

Stunning density and concentration but perfectly balanced acidity. Perhaps the best young Riesling I’ve ever tasted

Fantastic producer and wine

I could not resist, I had to open another bottle, not closed down, still incredible balance, acids, fruit, minerals, could not smell the petro but taste white peaches.

Yum, explosive fruit and energetic, minerals, salinity, bright and alive. The finish is long and it holds in your mind. Better than Donnhoff GKA 2018, and I drank them both at the same time. Zilliken is sweeter, the finish lingers longer, more balanced. Donnoff is precision in a glass, Zilliken has more passion and attacks you at every phase, and makes you want to hold your glass until every drop is gone.

I can only describe this as mind bending, total balance, nothing can compare. This was better than 2018 Donnhoff 2018 GKA!
