Geltz/Zilliken Saarburger Riesling dry

A Riesling that shows what the Saar can do: cool minerality, precise acidity, and yet enough substance to hold its own at the table.

The Forstmeister Geltz Zilliken winery is one of the most significant addresses on the Saar — a tributary of the Mosel, known for particularly filigree, nervy-mineral Rieslings. The Zilliken family has been farming their sites for generations; the wines are made from certified organic grapes. The Saarburger Riesling dry is the entry-level wine in the estate's range — and no compromise.

In the glass, it shows the typical Saar signature: aromas of green apple, citrus zest, and a fine hint of white peach, underneath a clearly mineral undertone reminiscent of wet slate. The acidity is lively but not aggressive — it runs through the wine as a taut line and ensures a long, salty-fresh finish.

Served at 10–12 °C, it pairs well with grilled zander, river trout with herb butter, or a mild goat cheese. It also makes a good companion to Asian dishes with ginger and lime.

Find the right wine faster – with our picks

Row above the wines with the “Our picks” button open and three Super Tuscans

You can now find the right wine faster. Above the wines in every category there is one row that brings it all together: Our picks, Occasion, Goes with, Wine style, Filters and Sort by.

Row above the wines with Filters, Our picks, Goes with, Wine style, Bought before and Sort by; the "Our picks" button is open with "Super Tuscan" selected, next to it Tignanello, Le Volte and Le Serre Nuove

  • Our picks. The "Our picks" button comes first. Choose "Great value" to see wines that deliver more than their price suggests. Some of them have been recognised by Falstaff and other critics for exactly that, the others we have picked for you.
  • Super Tuscans. On the Tuscany page, "Our picks" also takes you to the red cult wines that deliberately broke with the old appellation rules: Tignanello, Ornellaia, Sassicaia, Le Volte, Guado al Tasso and many more, from the first step up to large formats.
  • One tap, one choice. Tap "Occasion", "Goes with" or "Wine style" and pick what you are looking for, such as "Aperitif & spritz" or "Fish". The button then shows what is currently selected.
  • Everything at a glance. Whatever you have selected appears right below. Tap the cross to remove it, or "Clear all" to remove everything at once.
  • Always at hand on your phone. The row stays at the top while you scroll, so you can change filters and sorting without scrolling back up.
  • Bought before. When you are logged in, the "Bought before" switch shows which wines in the category you have already bought from us, online or in the shop. Handy when you want to find a favourite again.
