Markus Molitor is based in the small village of Klosterberg, nestled in the ever-bustling Moselle River. The region is beloved by many tourists thanks to its unique blend of stunning nature, picturesque villages, and authentic German cuisine. However, the Moselle is also known among wine drinkers for its wines. While these wines have long been questionable in quality, the region boasts a high proportion of renowned winemakers. Markus Molitor is one of those pioneers; he is a true magician, especially with Riesling. The location of the vines, in particular, ensures that each wine has its own distinct character.
But Markus Molitor also produces excellent Pinot Blanc, or Weissburgunder as the Germans call it. The man himself personally selects the grapes for Markus Molitor Einstern Pinot Blanc* in early October. A unique feature is that the grapes are spontaneously fermented in large wooden barrels. Afterward, the juice is aged in stainless steel tanks.
We can call this Markus Molitor Einstern Pinot Blanc* a true spectacle. Exuberant, festive, yet retaining the power of Pinot Blanc. Thanks to the unique microclimate, this Pinot Blanc manages to build a surprising amount of strength. Refined and almost chic. Not particularly juicy, but rather restrained fruit, which is also the strength of Markus Molitor Einstern Pinot Blanc*. The notes of honey and blossoming blossoms are particularly striking. The crystal-clear mineral finish ensures a sparkling finale.
