Tasting Notes

The citrus-colored 2014 Saarburger Rausch Riesling Auslese #1 (Versteigerung) was auctioned in Trier 2015 and fetched 83 Euros plus taxes. The wine opens with a beautifully clear and elegant slate aroma and very fine fruit aromas. This is a very delicate but complex Auslese of great purity, finesse and elegance whose residual sugar of 98 grams per liter is perfectly absorbed by the salty minerality of this excellent Auslese. The finish is long and full of tension, but weightless. Total production: One fuder or 1,300 bottles.
