Wagner-Stempel Sauvignon Blanc 2023 - 0,75l

Wagner-Stempel Sauvignon Blanc 2023 is a dry Sauvignon Blanc from Rheinhessen with apple, green almond and passion fruit over Siefersheim stone and a cool snap. It has the brisk shape that suits an aperitif. It also has enough fruit and mineral grip for a proper plate of fish.

About the Wine
The 2023 Wagner-Stempel Sauvignon Blanc comes from the estate’s vineyards around Siefersheim in western Rheinhessen. This is Wagner-Stempel’s home ground, not a broad regional blend with a vague address. The vines grow on mineral-rich soils around the village, giving the wine its clean stone edge and brisk apple profile. Sustainable farming is part of the estate’s work here. The fruit for this dry Sauvignon Blanc carries a green almond scent that feels very much tied to this bottling. Fermentation and aging take place in stainless steel tanks. The cellar keeps the wine direct, bright and centered on the fruit picked in 2023. There is no oak note in the flavor profile, just green apple, ripe gooseberry and a small flash of passion fruit. The wine is bottled dry at 12.5% alcohol, so the texture stays quick and lively rather than broad. A fine mineral line runs under the citrus and apple skin finish.

Tasting Notes
The nose opens with green apple, ripe gooseberry and a passion fruit note that gives this 2023 Wagner-Stempel Sauvignon Blanc its bright top register. On the palate it is dry and refreshing, with apple skin, green almond and a lightly tropical lift moving across a clear mineral base. The Siefersheim fruit gives the wine a cool, stony feel through the middle, and the 12.5% alcohol keeps the shape nimble. The finish is clean and mouthwatering, with a small almond bite that makes the next sip feel natural. Drink 2024-2026.

Food Pairing
Serve this Wagner-Stempel Sauvignon Blanc 2023 as a sharp aperitif with green olives, salted almonds and fresh goat cheese. Its apple and green almond notes are excellent with grilled sea bass, lemon sole or trout with herbs. For a Rheinhessen touch, pour it with Spundekäs and pretzels, where the wine’s acidity cuts through the creamy cheese spread. It also suits asparagus with hollandaise, sushi with cucumber and avocado, or a simple fish ceviche with lime and coriander. Keep the seasoning fresh and herbal rather than smoky or sweet.

Producer
Wagner-Stempel helped put Siefersheim on wine lists as a named village, with Heerkretz and Höllberg giving the estate a very specific hillside vocabulary. Daniel Wagner works from the family estate in the far west of Rheinhessen, close to the Nahe, where the landscape feels cooler and more broken than many people expect from the region. The estate is best known for wines that carry the Siefersheim stamp clearly, especially through dry Riesling from stony sites, and that local focus also shapes this Sauvignon Blanc. The stainless steel aging used for this bottling fits the house preference for clarity, so the 2023 speaks in apple, passion fruit and mineral snap. Wagner-Stempel’s sustainable vineyard work adds another practical detail to the bottle, rather than a decorative claim on the label. This Sauvignon Blanc sits a little apart from the estate’s famous Rieslings, with the same village address and a sharper green almond accent in the glass.
