Markus Molitor Alte Reben
Vino: Markus Molitor Alte Reben
Año: 2020
Región: VDP Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Alemania
Uvas: Riesling (100%)
Este vino procede de viñedos viejos ubicados entre Brauneberg y Traben-Trarbach en el valle del Mittelmosel. Los suelos son de pizarra, lo que aporta una gran complejidad mineral al vino. La uva Riesling se somete a un suave estrujado y maceración con pieles antes de la fermentación, que ocurre en grandes tinas de madera utilizando levaduras autóctonas. Posteriormente, el vino pasa largas semanas sobre lías finas en depósitos de acero inoxidable.
Perfil del Vino:
El 2020 Markus Molitor Alte Reben ofrece una bouquet pura y cristalina con notas de pizarra y frutas maduras de Riesling. En boca es suave, rico y elegante, con un equilibrio perfecto entre la fruta aromática y los taninos minerales que aportan tensión y frescura. La finalización es larga y compleja, destacando por su mineralidad.

The 2020 Riesling Alte Reben Mosel (White Capsule) offers a pure and crystalline slate bouquet with ripe and well-concentrated Riesling fruit. Lush and ripe on the palate, this is a very elegant, fresh and tensioned Riesling with intensely aromatic and sustainable fruit and mineral and tannic grip. A fabulous Riesling again and the best representative of Mosel Riesling you can get at this price. 11.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022.

Very attractive nose of white and yellow peach, as well as some blossom. Ripe and well structured, but also clean and bright, without a jot too much weight or volume. This is a very classic dry Mosel. Long, complete finish with serious mineral complexity. Drink or hold.
Markus Molitor took over his father's winery in 1984, aged twenty, with one and a half hectares in the Wehlener Klosterberg. Forty years later he farms some one hundred and twenty hectares across fifteen sites in the Middle Mosel and the Saar —Wehlen, Zeltingen-Rachtig, Bernkastel— many of them top-classified, which makes it one of the largest privately owned estates on the Mosel. On those slopes there are still ungrafted vines around a hundred years old.
The estate solved on its own a classic problem of German wine: that the label does not always make clear how much sugar is in the bottle. Molitor encodes it in the capsule. White for dry, grey-green for off-dry and gold for naturally sweet. There is no need to read the back label: the colour says it from the shelf.
