Zilliken's 2019 Mosel Riesling drifts between citrus and orchard fruit with the kind of buoyant sweetness that feels summery rather than heavy. Crisp acidity keeps it nearly weightless. Easy-drinking doesn't mean simple: there's real balance here, fruit and acid in conversation, the way a good Riesling should be.

Winemaker Notes

Like the song says: summertime and the Riesling is easy. This is the fruity (“lieblich”) counterpart to the off-dry Butterfly Riesling. Pretty flavors of citrus and orchard fruits drift like a lazy raft on a summer lake while the crisp acidity balances the fruitiness and keeps the wine nearly weightless as it floats across the palate. It ends with a long, meandering finish of lemon zest and apple tart.
