Weingut Koehler-Ruprecht - Kallstadter Saumagen, Riesling, Auslese Trocken, Pfalz, Germany (2017)

TASTING NOTES

An absolute stunner. So complex, layered and mind-bending with an ever-lasting finish. Intense notes of ginger, saffron, kerosene, wet earth, mushroom, dried herbs, lemon meringue pie and orange blossom. This wine has an electric buzz on the palate and a deep, lush palate. 

This historic estate, long managed by the legendary and larger-than-life Bernd Philippi, was purchased in 2009 and since 2011 has been in the dedicated hands of Dominik Sona. He and his cellar master Franziska Schmitt are intensely hard-working and strictly honor the arch-traditional style of this beautiful, centuries-old cellar. 

Koehler-Ruprecht is known for broad, rich and minerally Rieslings, Pinots and Chardonnays.
