2003 Saarburger Rausch Spatlese

Zilliken’s 2003 Riesling Spatlese Saarburger Rausch bursts from the glass with expressive white flower scents. On the palate, this delicate, light-bodied effort never seems to fully blossom. Restrained notes of minerals and red berries can be discerned in its shy and slightly dusty personality. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. Dec 2004, www.robertparker.com
