Domane Serrig Vogelsang Riesling Grosse Lage 2021

Markus Molitor: Maestro of the German Riesling ! In the illustrious world of German Riesling, Markus Molitor stands as a beacon of distinction. Renowned globally, he has transformed the family estate into a sprawling 120-hectare empire nestled in the heart of the esteemed Moselle vineyards. Seizing control of the estate at a youthful 20 years old, Markus continues the storied legacy passed down through eight generations in his family, with a vision to revive the golden era of the most exceptional Moselle Rieslings. His mastery unfolds in the cultivation of old vines on steep slopes, dominating over 90% of his vineyard plots. In 2016, Markus embarked on an exciting journey in the Saar with the acquisition of Domäne Serrig, a vineyard perhaps less acknowledged than its illustrious Moselle counterpart but equally distinguished. This historical gem, established in 1904 by the German Emperor Wilhelm, is home to the Vogelsang vineyard, sprawling across 25 hectares on steep slopes, some gradients even boasting an impressive 105%. Grosse Lage: An Exceptional Grand Cru: Crafted exclusively from Grands Crus vines, Grosse Lage is a sublime dry white wine that encapsulates the essence of the Saar vineyard. Hand-harvested in mid-October, the grapes undergo a meticulous 10-month lees aging in 3000-liter Stokinger oak barrels, followed by an additional two years of bottle maturation. A truly outstanding expression. Tasting notes Engage in the vibrant dance between expressive flint and delicate white fruit nuances. The palate reveals a finely structured body, both taut and commanding. Its unique minerality, reminiscent of sea salt, shines through. Concluding with a pristine finish, the wine lingers, asserting its near-endless persistence.
