Kallstadter Saumagen Kabinett trocken Riesling

This guy makes it happen. Dry, spiced ginger, dried peaches

After #tasting High West Campfire and a Wild Turkey barrel aged stout, this wine was able to push its way to the front #enamored

Spicebread, linseed oil/petrol nose. Palate has some musty caramel that I find often with this producer's wines. But then wham: Great lemony acidity. Canned pineapple, talcum powder. And big time saline mineral finish! So fresh and puckering and alive! Still, glad I caught it here. Perfect balance of fresh and advanced to my "always seeking youthful, fresh-leaning wine that has worked out its youthful kinks" palate.

Thanks, Francois, for offering this gem from the Pfalz.

Riesling wowser

At Bestia, paired with orata

Sometimes you sip something without paying attention. And then it's electric & you snap to. And then you find out it's a crazy value. And you're stoked.

Really good

2010 vintage.

Mellow Riesling, not too sweet, interesting blend of floral and mineral notes
