Markus Molitor Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Beerenauslese * Gold Capsule 2017 (375mL)  - First Bottle

Reviews

100 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
The 2017 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Beerenauslese * (Golden Capsule) is intense, fine and flinty on the highly precise nose with crunchy slate and grapefruit notes. Dense and concentrated on the palate, it has sweet but elegant and highly refined fruit intertwined with salty-finessed slate salinity and delicate acidity. This is a beautifully balanced BA from Molitor's most important grand cru vineyard. Many readers might prefer its sweet and charming richness to the delicate finesse and crystallinity of the Wurzgarten BA, which will be ready to drink sooner. But this Zeltinger Sonnenuhr in turn will gain even more finesse and drinkability over the years. Tasted at the domain in April 2019.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
Perfection tastes so damn good! Wine Advocate 100 points from one of the iconoclasts of the Mosel. The stable of 2017 releases are nothing short of mesmerizing. Only a tiny amount of these glorious half bottles available at the best price you'll find! 

About the Producer

In 1984, at the tender age of 20, Markus Molitor took over his father's winery with a clear aim: to produce Mosel Rieslings under the name "Molitor" in the tradition of eight generations and in the same quality that made the region world-famous 100 years ago. The wines are terroir-specific, unmistakable and extremely ageable. One of our favorite Mosel producers here at First Bottle!
