Koehler-Ruprecht Kallstadter Saumagen Riesling Spaetlese 2019

The 2019 vintage has also done particularly well at Koehler Ruprecht, but should continue to mature in the cellar for a few more years. The limestone of one of the most famous Riesling sites lends the warm Palatinate Riesling aromas of pineapple and lemon a mineral polish and structure that ensure a long development and the perfect harmony of power and elegance. The winery, which continues the work of cult winemaker Bernd Philippi, brings out these ideal natural conditions with a light hand. Harvesting by hand, longer maceration times of up to two days, spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts, a long yeast storage in old wooden barrels, produce wines that do not convince with intense primary fruit, but combine mineral freshness, fine spiciness and exotic maturity in a tinglingly intense way.
