Markus Molitor Urziger Wurzgarten Riesling Beerenauslese Gold Capsule 2017 (375mL)  - First Bottle

Reviews

100 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
The 2017 Riesling Urziger Wurzgarten Beerenauslese opens with a very clear, elegant, highly aromatic and finessed bouquet of ripe tropical and domestic fruits intermixed with stony notes. On the palate, this is a lush and salty-piquant BA with great mineral vitality and lingering energy on the finish. What a filigreed, lean, finessed and light-footed sweet wine with refreshing grapefruit notes on the nose and palate. This is incredibly elegant and refined, and I can't imagine this BA could have been done any better. It's incredibly charming and will tickle your palate now and forever. Tasted at the domain in April 2019.

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!
