Domane Serrig - Vogelsang Grosse Lage 2021
Domane Serrig Description
This 2021 Grosse Lage (Grand Cru) bottling, while technically "feinherb," drinks with a striking dryness, a hallmark of this cooler vintage due to elevated acidity, and contains 10 g/l of residual sugar with 8 g/l acidity and 12% alcohol. Made from 100% Riesling, hand-picked and gently basket-pressed, it undergoes spontaneous fermentation in a combination of oak and stainless steel. Expect a spectacularly intense flinty and stony minerality on the nose, with notes of citron and pamplemousse pressé, blood orange, and orange blossom. The palate is brilliantly chiseled, incredibly tense yet gloriously silky in texture, with vertiginous acidity and a radiant, ultra-juicy attack that expands through the palate. Matchstick and campfire smoke notes intertwine with slate, citrus, and juicy elderflower. A monument to Riesling, with immense aging potential.
