Markus Molitor's intensely yellow colored Domäne Serrig 2021 Vogelsang Grosse Lage opens with a deep, intense and rich yet refined bouquet of ripe Saar Riesling intermingled with sur-lie aromas and Molitor's script. This could be a Burgundy as well in terms of fruit intensity and the yeasty undercurrent. Round and elegant on the palate, this is an off-dry Riesling with a savory palate and the remarkable 2021 acidity that is well wrapped here by texture and a serving of sweetness that most consumers might receive as roundness, the more so since its assisted by a sense of large oak. The acidity is nevertheless very fine and even playful, and the wine indicates its depth and mineral tension. It is well balanced yet mouthfilling and salivating, but it's still far too young to be consumed for what it is. A pleasant and promising wine at this early stage, yet this is even more of a sleeping giant that deserves not just our money but even more so our patience. It is very long and intense and with endless fruit aromas and stimulating salts. Keep it for at least 5 or 6 years. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in September 2024.
