Mosel QbA Riesling Auslese Zeltinger Sonnenuhr *** 2019 Markus Molitor

The Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Auslese comes from the 23 hectares of the area located south of the winery and along the Moselle river.

With a south-southwest orientation, the soils are rich in slate and the right slope gives elegant and fragrant wines, with a pleasant minerality. The manual selection of ripe grapes is followed by spontaneous fermentation in steel to preserve the fragrance and fruit and ageing in large barrels in contact with the fine lees.

Straw yellow in colour, it is a Riesling with hints of ripe fruit, floral notes and delicate herbaceous aromas that unfold a harmonious and full taste on the palate, with intense flavours of exotic fruit such as guava and melon, for a dense and refined sip, of great persistence and minerality.

Perfect wine for vegetable-based first courses such as vegetarian lasagna and marinated white meats.
