Kallstadt Saumagen Riesling GG - Philipp Kuhn

The Kallstadt Saumagen Riesling GG from the Pfalz wine-growing region presents itself in the glass in brilliantly shimmering light yellow. When swirling the glass, this white wine is characterized by an immense brilliance that makes it dance lively. This single varietal German wine flatters in the glass with wonderfully expressive notes of pears, apples, nashi pears and quince. These are joined by hints of garrigue, sun-warmed rock and juniper.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with only 1 gram of residual sugar. This is a true quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities, and so this German wine naturally enraptures with the finest balance despite all its dryness. Taste does not necessarily need sugar. Light-footed and multilayered, this crisp white wine presents itself on the palate. Due to its concise fruit acidity, the Kallstadt Saumagen Riesling GG reveals itself wonderfully fresh and lively on the palate. In the finish, this white wine from the wine-growing region of Palatinate, which can be stored well, finally inspires with beautiful length. Hints of quince and apple show again.
