WTN: 2007 Zilliken Kabinett

2007 Zilliken (Forstmeister Geltz) Saarburger Rausch Riesling Kabinett - Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer (4/5/2019)
In a prime drinking window for those who like some age on their German Riesling, this has developed a smoky overlay to the fruit, as well as a very interesting textural style. It wanders between creamy and oily, then the acidity takes over in the finish. It is still characteristic of the 2007 vintage, so if you are looking for laser focused acidity, I would choose a different vintage. There is never a bad vintage of Saarburger Rausch Kabinett. They just reflect the site, and the conditions of the year.

Sad to say I have never seen Zilliken in my area.
