Tasting Note

All the intensity and wonder of the Auslese, and then some. Deep, honeyed aromas of dried pineapple and dripping passion fruit are accented with orange blossom and wild mint. Each of the thousand flavors swirls on the dynamic palate, simulating the experience of trying to view a Monet painting from up-close. Yet, the real magic only happens when you step back and take it in as a wonderful, beautiful whole. Despite the lushness, it achieves a wonderful lightness and quiet, timeless beauty.

Product Notes

Zilliken Saarburger Rausch Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel is a premium German wine that is considered to be one of the finest expressions of the Riesling grape. This wine is made from grapes that are grown on steep, slate slopes in the Saar region of Germany, which creates a distinct minerality and acidity in the wine. The grapes are harvested by hand and the wine is fermented for a long period of time in stainless steel tanks to preserve the purity of the fruit. The resulting wine is beautifully balanced, with rich aromas of ripe peaches, honey, and apricots, followed by a crisp, refreshing acidity and a long, elegant finish. Zilliken Saarburger Rausch Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel is an excellent wine to enjoy with spicy cuisine or as a dessert wine.
