March 26, 2022 - From the wine list at Teton Pines. (Half bottle) Lemon, yellow peach, on a minerally base. Vibrant, with a long finish. Paired with cream of asparagus soup (mediocre soup, which made the wine stand out) followed by truffle risotto with asparagus, to which the wine admirably stood up. Lovely.

April 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.

October 25, 2014 - From a half bottle, this wine had a light yellow center and clear rims. The medium intensity nose displayed citrus, honey, and Riesling funk.
This wine was a bit watery in the mouth at first but firmed up nicely with air. It had a medium body and excellent length.
While this is drinking, it will last for years. -

April 2009 (link)(Zilliken Saarburger Rausch Riesling Kabinett, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer) The superb aromatics include some spiciness, smoky minerality, and grilled apricots. Minty, grilled peaches, apricots, smoke, and minerals dominate the palate. This wine has a rich, soft, tree-fruit texture, juicy acidity, and a long, tangy, fresh finish. Hot Picks
