Markus Molitor vineyards are located from Brauneberg to Traben-Trarbach and since 2001 also in the Saar Valley. The variety of slate soils and micro-climates allows us to vinify numerous facets of Mosel wines. Molitor wines are literally rooted in their slate soils. Deliberately sensitive and restrained vineyard management, low yields, and late harvest of physiologically ripe grapes make for a matchless wealth of flavor extracts.
Each individual Molitor wine - whether white or red; dry, off-dry or sweet; with or without Prädikat – reflects the potential of its vineyard and vintage. Each is as singular, authentic and expressive as possible. This presupposes strict selection, precise handwork and calculated scrutiny of each individual berry. So it is no surprise that the grapes are harvested manually in multiple passes by experienced staff and then subjected to further selection in the cellar, all under the watchful eyes of Markus Molitor. Because only scrupulous separation of each different ripeness level and further separation of individual berries, leads to the highest qualities.

Zesty and Lively
This Riesling from the Saar region offers an alluring bouquet of ripe peach and apricot, complemented by a subtle hint of honeyed sweetness. Its palate is defined by vibrant acidity, harmoniously balancing the rich fruit flavors of green apple and citrus. The wine's complexity is enhanced by a delicate minerality that adds depth, along with a touch of floral notes reminiscent of elderflower. Ending on a crisp and refreshing note, the finish leaves a lingering impression of zesty citrus and a subtle mineral essence, making it a delightful choice for Riesling enthusiasts.

Luminous and Seductive
The 2020 Riesling Bernkasteler Lay Auslese ** (White Capsule) is pure, refined, and fresh on the precise and concentrated but bright and shining, transcendental nose that is intense and ripe but doesn't show any tropical fruit aromas. Crystalline, highly refined and saline on the palate, this is a rich and very intense Riesling whose electric acidity takes all the weight and concentration up a steep flight to heaven, where the wine flies possibly forever like a satellite around the globe. The finish is so juicy, so saline and so precise that one can't leave the glass without a sense of wonder. So much finesse and intensity in one glass.

Saline and Stimulating
The 2021 Riesling Ürziger Würzgarten Spätlese (Golden Capsule) is clear, precise, and flinty on the elegant and complex but bright and alluring nose. On the palate, this is a round and mouth-filling, crystalline and very elegant Würzgarten with a very long, stimulating saline and crunchy, thus almost dry-tasting finish. It has a beautiful slate character and stimulating tension and is mouth-watering.

Refined and Complex
Excitingly pure and focused on the terroir characteristics and the fine but concentrated berry and cherry fruit that is obviously based on French genetics, the 2020 Pinot Noir Brauneberger Klostergarten ** opens with an intense yet refined and bright, iodine-scented bouquet of dark forest berries intertwined with flinty notes of crushed slate and quartzite. Silky and immensely juicy yet fresh on the vital and highly finessed palate, this is an intense, tight complex, minerally tensioned and mouth-tickling, even iodine Pinot with ripe and fine tannins intertwined with the crystalline and saline acidity.
