Saumagen, which translates to pig's stomach, is named after the shape of the vineyard (it also happens to be the region's most famous local dish). Established as a vineyard in 1810, this area used to be a limestone quarry in Roman times. The soils here are heavy in chalky marl and full of tiny individual limestones. This utterly elegant, dancing, "true" dry Kabinett is considered the calling card of the estate.

"The 2021 Riesling Kallstadter Saumagen Kabinett trocken is both the first and the last harvest in this site, the very first pick of the green-tinged grapes and then the last pick, on 26 October 2021, of the grapes that still had a bright green color. The nose is restrained, but peach skin and pear peel come through, along with a subtle yeastiness. The palate comes in beautifully buffered, with apparent freshness, doing justice to its Kabinett status. It's bone-dry, smooth and, in a Pfalz-way, slender, still colored with that lovely streak of lemon and peach. This has both substance and style." —Anne Krebiehl MW

"Bottled in early July the this year, the 2021 Kallstadter Saumagen Riesling Kabinett trocken is still young and a bit closed on the clear, deep and stony nose. Fine and very elegant on the palate, this is a round, lush, refined, firm and persistently salty Saumagen with a long and intense finish. This is a serious, sustainably intense Riesling with substance and terroir expression after a long hang-time. It needs tine, though. 11.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork." —Stephan Reinhardt

WINE GUIDES

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
