Zilliken
The winery works with Nature, not against her. And for many years now, Nature has blessed the Saar with ideal conditions: a cool climate and a long fruit set. Even in an age of global warming and an increasing number of grand Saar vintages, they continue to enjoy one of the longest fruit sets when compared with our colleagues in southern regions. Zilliken believes in a slow, steady ripening is the key to exceptional aromatics.
They consciously limit our yields in this prized vineyard to a maximum of 50 hl/ha in order to guarantee the best possible complexity and quality.'Quality not quality' is more than just words. It's a philosophy, in fact they believe in it from beginning to end. It guides all decisions. They do one thing — Riesling — and they do it right.
