A classic fruity 'feinherb' Riesling from the Mosel. Juicy lemons and limes, well rounded (11.5%) with crunchy acidity. Great with medium weight Thaifood. Luk Chin Ping with Thai style seafood sauce.

Normally I’m not a big fan of Molitor, as I find his style a bit too petrol’y for my taste.
But this Saar Riesling just shines - weightless and completely effortless but with such precision and mineral depth. Beautifully poised & balanced with shy white peach and lemons and a mineral slatey backbone with a touch of spice towards the finish.
Such a nice wine!

Fine Rieslings Night
Tasted blind with its visavi same wine, same vintage, but not Alten Reben (old vines).
This one seems more closed. Herbal, camomile,
expressively mineral, iodine. Seems very young and nervous.
I doubt it will ever shine and will be as approachable crowd pleaser as its regular version. So I scored it less.
