  • TASTING NOTE: A wine of volume yet at the same time it is quite sleek. Highly complex with fruit notes of lemon, pear and stonefruit and herbal notes of mint and sage. The palate is intense, full bodied, but light on its feet. Spice and texture, minerals and salt driving the tremendous length. The finish is quite something, elegant and very fine.
  • ABOUT THE WINE: Saumagen is one of the most famous Grand Cru sites in the Pfalz region. Marl lime mixed with countless small limestone rocks characterizes the soil in this small basin, facing south/south-east. Here, the vines can flourish in best conditions. After hand picking, the grapes are gently pressed, some as whole grapes, some with a short maceration time. Wild yeast fermented and aged on the lees in stainless steel and large wooden casks for 10 months. Late sulphurisation, without fining or other aids. 
  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Rings estate is based at Freinsheim in the Rheinpfalz and is run by two brothers, Steffen and Andreas Rings who, after taking over from their father in 2001, concentrated 100% on wine rather than the mix of vineyards and orchards, and decided to be totally quality driven. They currently have 28 hectares of vines which they are expanding and they have a total commitment to top quality. Plantings are split between red and white, and between Riesling and Pinot varieties. Their main vineyards are around Freinsheim, Kallstadt and Ungstein, including the famous Saumagen vineyard. Soils are mainly sandy, loess and gravel with chalk and clay and viticulture is organic. In the winery, natural yeast fermentations are favoured and both stainless steel and wood are used depending on the wine, with the top wines given extended ageing before release. They are widely recognised as one of the shooting stars of the German wine scene and were admitted to the prestigious VDP organisation in 2016.
