Koehler-Ruprecht Kallstadter 'Saumagen' Riesling Auslese
Kallstadt Riesling is an excellent introduction to the range, but it is the limestone-rich ‘Saumagen' vineyard that delivers the estate’s top wines. Produced in miniscule amounts and only in great vintages, these wines are among the most complex and ageworthy dry whites in Germany. Intense and aromatic, with ripe, slightly caramelized fruit and subtle herbal notes. On the palate, it is rich and elegant, sweet yet lively, with tropical fruit flavors and a long, structured finish.
This 2018 Auslese is crafted from meticulously hand-harvested Riesling grapes from the famed Kallstadter Saumagen vineyard in the Pfalz region. Selected for their ripeness and concentration, the grapes undergo gentle pressing and cool fermentation to preserve aromatic purity. The wine offers a luscious yet refined balance of sweetness and structure, ideal for enjoying now or cellaring for several decades.
Koehler-Ruprecht, based in the Pfalz, is one of Germany’s most respected Riesling producers, with a history dating back to the 18th century. Renowned for their precise, site-driven wines, the estate combines traditional winemaking with careful attention to vineyard management, producing Rieslings that are vibrant, age-worthy, and true expressions of their terroir.
