Robert Parker

"The Saarburger Rausch Auslese ** 2017 Riesling (Golden Capsule) is intense and concentrated on the fresh, spicy nose that indicates fine botrytis with notes of candied lemon and rye bread. Lush and sweet as well as refined and spicy on the palate, this is an incredibly fruity and rich Auslese with great finesse and a light yet intense and aromatic body. The finish is intense yet delicate, multidimensional and fine. A magnificent Auslese from Rausch in Saarburg." (Wine Advocate 2019 - Stephan Reinhardt)
