2020 KALLSTADTER SAUMAGEN RIESLING KABINETT TROCKEN
TRY ME IF YOU LOVE: Unoaked Chardonnay
ABV: 11.5%
GRAPES: 100% Riesling
TASTING NOTES: White peach and honeysuckle on the nose of this elegant, mid-weight dry Riesling. Juicy with a pronounced chalky character, tiny bit of grip and a crisp finish. All the fruit comes from the sand-limestone Saumagen vineyard giving the wine its signature minerality. Perfect fodder for a summers lunch...
PAIRS WITH: Pork, charcuterie or spicy food.
SERVE ME: Serve chilled. Pop it in the fridge for a couple of hours.
Koehler-Ruprecht was founded in 1700s, building a reputation for quality dry Rieslings during a period when the style was nowhere near as popular as today. Various wines are made from grapes with different levels of ripeness. Fermentation is spontaneous and there is zero manipulation in the wine.
