Based in the Mosel, Weingut Markus Molitor also works exceptional vineyards in the Saar, where cooler conditions and slate soils produce especially fine, long-lived Riesling. Saarburger Rausch is a famous steep site known for its racy acidity and mineral tension. This Auslese** Gold Capsule comes from very ripe fruit selected for both concentration and purity, then fermented slowly in traditional fuder. The 2019 vintage delivered richness with precision. Compared with Molitor’s Mosel Auslesen, Saarburger Rausch often shows greater lift and sharper structure, combining ripe citrus, apricot and honey with vibrant acidity and a long, smoky slate finish. https://www.markusmolitor.com
