2019 Philipp Kuhn Riesling Saumagen G.G. Magnum 1,5 Liter

The Philipp Kuhn Riesling Saumagen G.G. 2019, presented in a 1.5L magnum, is a flagship dry Riesling from Germany’s Pfalz region, crafted by the Philipp Kuhn estate from the Saumagen vineyard. This 2019 vintage displays a bright gold hue and a complex nose of ripe apricot, lemon zest, and white peach, with hints of wet stone and subtle floral notes. The palate is rich and concentrated, with vibrant acidity, a mineral-driven core, and a long, elegant finish with a touch of honeyed complexity. Fermented and aged in large German oak casks, this Grosses Gewächs reflects the limestone-rich terroir of Pfalz. The magnum format enhances its aging potential, making it ideal for collectors. Perfect with lobster, creamy risottos, or aged cheeses, it offers a luxurious dining experience. With excellent aging potential, it will evolve over the next 10-15 years, developing richer, petrol-driven notes. This Saumagen Riesling is a collector’s gem, embodying Kuhn’s expertise in crafting iconic German whites with elegance and power.
