Markus Molitor Kinheimer Hubertuslay Riesling Auslese *** Gold Capsule 2017  - First Bottle

Reviews

99 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
The 2017 Riesling Kinheimer Hubertuslay Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) is clear and concentrated, on the deep and complex nose with stewed peach aromas intertwined with spicy notes of a fleeting kiss of oak and nougat. It has a highly elegant, refined and salty-piquant palate with fine grip and mineral tension. This Hubertuslay is rich, lush and sweet, with remarkable concentration but also weightless finesse and a lean, salty-piquant finish that tickles the palate. Lemon chutney flavors intertwined with the crystalline salinity characterize the long finish of this beauty. Tasted at the domain in April 2019.

We are not quite sure how he does it, but this winery can do no harm. The 2017s are beyond reproach and some of the finest wines I have ever tasted from the Mosel. If you are looking for a wine that is bulletproof in the cellar and irresistible even at this stage, then look no further.

About the Producer

In 1984, at the tender age of 20, Markus Molitor took over his father's winery with a clear aim: to produce Mosel Rieslings under the name "Molitor" in the tradition of eight generations and in the same quality that made the region world-famous 100 years ago. The wines are terroir-specific, unmistakable and extremely ageable. One of our favorite Mosel producers here at First Bottle!
