“These are phenomenal wines.” – Vinous

In the Elysian fields, it’s not rain, nor hail nor snow that falls from the heavens - but golden drops of RIESLING!!

Or so we imagine…

Luckily, we don’t need to bite the dust to experience such wonder. Today through the magic of the internet, and some persistent sleuthing, we bring you a kaleidoscopic assemblage of the finest examples this varietal has to offer!

Last time we did this we sold out FIVE different Molitor Rieslings in a matter of hours. This time we’re back “prepared” with more than A DOZEN MORE.

You’ll find those here in the Store and each is a tremendous bargain. The quantities are minuscule. And the scores MASSIVE - up to a 100-pointer Appy Friday exclusive to be announced later today (you got the app, right?.

Today we’re centered on the heartland of Riesling - Mosel. Where the common denominator being teeth-chattering acidity to balance all that ethereal sweet lightning rod of lush flavor. Each one a RARE micro production gem that needs to be seized like this fleeting moment. Because when they are gone, they are GONE for good.

How big is Molitor? Of the 50-something Rieslings that have scored 100 points, a whopping HALF are by Molitor. Next are come the likes of Dönnhoff or Fritz Haag… so Molitor is KING.

Take it away Wine Advocate: “Here is another collection like no other from one of the world’s greatest winemakers… The Rieslings are all from renowned steep slate slopes along the Middle Mosel and Saar - something like the Mount Everest, K2 and Nanga Parbat of the Riesling world. What the former dressage rider, race-car driver and pedantically precise winemaker fills into bottles is the very best of what winemaking art has to offer. Dry Molitors come with a white capsule, feinherb (medium-dry to medium-sweet) with a lime green capsule and the sweet with a golden capsule…”

With that guidance in place, they wrap things up by asking “Which wine to choose out of so many if it isn’t one of the costly top scorers? I can’t take this decision off your hands… but whatever you choose, you will hardly be disappointed.”

Choose away, while they last!

93 Points – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“The 2019 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Kabinett (Golden Capsule) is intense and tropically scented on the pure, refined and very elegant, finely slatey and spicy nose. Intense and mouth-filling fruity on the palate, this is a full-bodied, very aromatic, vivacious and stimulating salty Kabinett with serious mineral acidity and a grippy slate structure. Impressive… Drink 2025-2045.”
