Kallstadter Saumagen Auslese Trocken Riesling
Fascinating - KR uses pradikat levels of ripeness despite being in the Pfalz. One reason they left the VDP. This is otherworldly delicious and complex with an oily texture. Seek this out. Appreciate the info @idtt

Aug 5th, 2021Difficult to judge. This wine is super tight and in my opinion should not be drunk now. Medium body notes of licorice with a bitter finish. Impossible to judge could be 5 points higher as well as 5 lower. Needs a lot more time.

Apr 29th, 2021This is some salty Riesling. Saline. Iodine. Fuller bodied with citrus and slate. Long finish that seemed lightly oxidative. Definitely Trocken.

Mar 1st, 2018Clean, Cristalclear and Precise.
Peat, resin, reine claude plums, chalk, lemonpreserve, yeast, tripel ale, iodine, old foudres, hyacinth... I could go on and on.
Very elegant and complex. Thirstquenching yet cerebral.
A wonderful wine in a unique style that reminds me of Chablis from Raveneau.

Too early. Dense and rich, but so wrapped up that with my limited experience with Auslese trocken, it's hard hard for me to tell when or whether this will blossom to reveal more complexity.

Dec 17th, 2016A bummer. Very thin, flat and without any of the complexity I know from the KR Auslese R wines.

Sep 25th, 2015Bright golden yellow.
Salty smoky minerals, caramelized citrus, dry honey, old foudres, wet wool and an attractive mossy rainwater vibe that I like very much.
Although this regular Auslese trocken does not have the depth and complexity of the Reserve bottlings, it shows the trademark KR funk in spades.
Recommended!
