Kallstadter Saumagen R Auslese Trocken Riesling
A bit overshadowed by the G-Max. Nevertheless an outstanding Riesling from Bernd Phillipi which still can age for 10-15 more years.

Jun 5th, 2016The second time I've drank this legendary vintage and it's much better than the first. Near perfect experience, in fact.
Started off somewhat awkward, with heavy petrol tones. Then it sheds, revealing a full-blown array of smokey goodness interlaced with dried chamomile, herbs, and citrus. The minerality just keeps building, and pushes through with a finish that just doesn't stop. This is a boxer, ever light on his feet, never losing his balance or stamina, and I'm an opponent - most happy in defeat.
