Based in the Mosel Valley, Weingut Markus Molitor is especially renowned for its Wehlener Sonnenuhr bottlings, drawn from one of Germany’s great slate vineyards. This Auslese*** Gold Capsule comes from highly selected late-harvest Riesling with very high must weight, fermented slowly in traditional oak fuder. The warm 2015 vintage delivered richness, precision and superb balance. Compared with White Capsule versions from the same site, this bottling is markedly sweeter and more opulent, combining ripe apricot, honey, candied citrus and floral notes with vibrant acidity and extraordinary persistence, reflecting both the triple-star selection and the power of Wehlener Sonnenuhr. https://www.markusmolitor.com
