ZELTINGERSONNENUHR RIESLINGSPÄTLESE, WHITECAPSULE MARKUSMOLITOR 2016 DRINK2018 - 2027

MEET THE GROWER Markus Molitor MOSEL Eight generations of family Molitor have been crafting wines on these amazingly steep Mosel vineyards, many with inclinations of 80%! Markus is the current custodian, having taken over fromhis father in 1984 at the age of 20. He has earnt some fabulous Parker points over the years with his dedication to learning from the past and bringing out the terroir of every inch of his holdings. Hemakes over 70 different wines on his 22 hectares, so the choice is never an easy one, but we have selected out those that we think offer diverse drinking andmost importantly, some extraordinary value for money. All reflect the various different types of slate inwhich they grow, and which give the wines their identity. Also of major appeal is that these wines are low in alcohol, making themperfect for drinking at any time.

The nose is crisp and precise, an apple basket with Granny Smith and Pink Ladies. The body of the wine is ripe and luscious with great structure – canmature if desired - stone fruits andmore prominent red apple on the palate. There’s superb concentration and length here. With 95 Parker points and only 11% abv, hands down one of the world’s best white wines.

I happen to like Germanwines… Quality Germanwines have two advantages for the consumer. First, price. Second, of all major classic wines of Europe these are, inmy opinion, the easiest to enjoy.
