Germany Markus Molitor

Our committee's review

A true star of the Mosel, Markus Molitor has taken his estate to the very top of the world stage. Coveted by the greatest collectors, his Rieslings have earned international acclaim, crowned time and again with Parker’s ultimate 100/100 score. And this 2020 vintage is no exception.

The estate’s magic lies in its geology: vertiginous slopes reaching up to 80%, soils of red volcanic slate and sandstone, and harvests carried out only at maximum ripeness. The result is wines of dazzling purity, with incredible elegance and structure.

Molitor’s bottles are easily identified by their capsule color: white for dry, green for off-dry, and gold for sweet. Each style achieves perfect balance, thanks to uncompromising precision and long, patient aging.

For over 35 years, Markus Molitor has stood as a global reference for Riesling. To taste his wines is to touch legend.

100/100 Parker, the 2020 white WC Mosel Erdener Prälat Riesling Auslese *** is impressive in its purity and depth! A mere 8 ares underpin the excellence of this cuvée; a lentil of terroir that finds no equivalent on the planet and forges this exceptional wine. Robert Parker's review is dithyrambic, and for good reason: concentration, delicate aromas of mint, ripe fruit, zest and smoke come together in perfect balance. The wine's crystalline quality and delicacy do not mask its power, and that's where its success lies. Spectacular, intense and, of course, long-lasting.

Is there a greater Riesling in the world? Certainly not of this calibre...
