Markus Molitor Description
Markus Molitor Riesling Kabinett Mosel-Saar-Ruwer Wehlener Klosterberg is a true gem from the heart of the Molitor vineyards. This eloquent and professional expression of a classic Riesling is crafted with grapes sourced from the south-facing slopes of the Wehlener Klosterberg vineyard. This exceptional wine is vinified using natural yeasts, with the grapes macerated on their skins for several hours, then rested on the lees after fermentation to produce a balanced and aromatic masterpiece.
Upon first opening, the Markus Molitor Riesling Kabinett exhibits a strong reductive character. However, with ample aeration, it unveils an exquisite bouquet of cool herbs, mint, greengage, and a hint of smoke. On the palate, this dynamic wine is delightfully refreshing, boasting a gripping presence and showcasing its mineral finesse in the lingering aftertaste. With a light and airy finish, this Riesling offers incredible potential for maturity and complexity.
The Markus Molitor Riesling Kabinett Mosel-Saar-Ruwer Wehlener Klosterberg's tantalizing flavors and crisp acidity make it an ideal companion to a variety of dishes. Pair this elegant Riesling with fresh seafood such as grilled shrimp, seared scallops, or a delicate white fish. It also complements Asian-inspired cuisine, like sushi or spicy Thai dishes, and can even balance the richness of a creamy pasta or a tangy goat cheese salad.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
shows a ripe and lush, bright and finely concentrated white peach aroma intermingled with coolish slate notes. Dense and straight on the palate, this is a lean and tense, saline and grippy Riesling that is far too young to be enjoyed before 2025 or maybe even 2030.
