The epitome of taste and quality—that's what Markus Molitor wines are. This Markus Molitor Kinheimer Hubertuslay Fruchtsuss Auslese*** fits right into the category of successful wines; so incredibly good. Truly a wine in a class of its own, a wine that few other Rieslings even come close to.

The wines of Markus Molitor

Although the winery has been around for eight generations, it's the most recent addition, coincidentally Markus Molitor, who has truly given it the cachet it deserves. He took the helm in 1984 at the age of twenty and has been busy in the nearly forty years that followed. Markus Molitor is now a major player in the Mosel region, producing some of the finest wines from the Riesling grape. This Markus Molitor Kinheimer Hubertuslay Fruchtsuss Auslese*** comes from a unique vineyard located in the Middle Mosel region. The Hubertuslay vineyard is situated on an extremely steep, south-facing slope. The soil is predominantly dark slate. The vines specifically for this wine are planted at the bottom of the slope. Here, the grapes ripen faster, resulting in a sweeter wine. This allows us to call this Auslese sweeter than any other Auslese. This principle is also known as Fruchsuss.

Impressions of Markus Molitor Kinheimer Hubertuslay Fruchtsuss Auslese***

The three stars behind the name are personally awarded by Markus Molitor. Before harvest, he inspects and classifies the grapes in the vineyards. Only the best grapes receive one, two, or three stars. This Markus Molitor Kinheimer Hubertuslay Fruchtsuss Auslese*** has the highest score, and each grape is therefore specially selected. This incredibly labor-intensive work certainly yields results. A true spectacle from start to finish. You smell a hint of candied fruit combined with dried apricots and soft pear. But this Markus Molitor wine also has a certain complexity. Think pencil shavings, minerals, and a touch of smoky. A true gastronomic masterpiece that makes our vinologists incredibly happy.
