}

The Markus Molitor winery has become a pioneer of German wines. The tireless dedication and sharp craftsmanship of the eponymous owner ensure that Markus Molitor's wines are truly exceptional among German wines. This is also due to its location, nestled right between the mountains. This makes it slightly warmer, and the climate is comparable to that of Burgundy. It was precisely for this reason that Markus Molitor decided to plant Pinot Noir.

Perfectly ripe grapes for Markus Molitor wines

Markus Molitor represents the eighth generation of the winery. Over forty years, he has built Markus Molitor's reputation. He has achieved impressive results, particularly in the Riesling department. However, his true passion lies with Pinot Noir, thanks to Burgundy. He aspires to the same style as that of this French wine region. Thanks to his dedication and passion, he succeeded, and this Markus Molitor Brauneberger Mandelgraben* Pinot Noir is virtually indistinguishable from a Pinot Noir from Burgundy. Markus Molitor has also awarded this wine one star. This is a classification developed by Markus Molitor and is applied exclusively to his wines. Only grapes from the very best vineyards can earn up to three stars. Before the harvest begins, Markus Molitor selects the grapes that may earn one star. The very best receive three stars, but a grape with only one star is also exceptionally good. With this Markus Molitor Brauneberger Mandelgraben* Pinot Noir, you can be sure that every grape has been personally approved by Markus Molitor himself.

Flavorful Pinot Noir from Markus Molitor

The oak aging of Markus Molitor Brauneberger Mandelgraben* Pinot Noir gives it distinct character. The juice is aged for a full 14 months in new French oak. Markus Molitor also prefers an unfiltered wine, which gives it more character. This is clearly recognizable in the aroma: wild berries, sour cherries, licorice, and juniper. But once in the glass, Markus Molitor Brauneberger Mandelgraben* Pinot Noir truly develops: robust oak, flint, and hints of tobacco. Fruit and spice are well balanced, constantly challenging you to take another sip.
