Late‑harvested Spätlese grapes provide extra ripeness and depth, while the off‑dry balance aims for intensity and length without the full richness of dessert styles, letting the slate‑driven minerality remain prominent.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eGrapes are hand‑harvested, gently pressed and fermented at cool temperatures, with fermentation stopped before all sugar is consumed to retain a moderate level of residual sweetness. Maturation on fine lees in stainless steel helps integrate sweetness and acidity and adds subtle creaminess, yielding a wine that is both vivid and polished, with a seamless interplay of fruit, acid and mineral notes.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"marker:text-quiet list-disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eAromas of tropical fruit, nectarine, melon and pineapple, supported by citrus zest, ripe apple and delicate floral hints.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" aria-label=\"Markus Molitor Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Spätlese - Vivino\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eOn the palate, juicy stone‑fruit and exotic fruit flavours sit over a veil of off‑dry sweetness, lifted by intense, mouthwatering acidity.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eThe finish is clean, long and balanced, carrying tinned‑fruit, honey and wet‑stone nuances with a touch of herbal and balsamic lift.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards and Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2023 Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Spätlese (green capsule) holds an aggregated quality rating of about 94% on Vinous’ database, placing it among the stronger Mosel Spätlese releases of the vintage. Earlier nearby vintages of the same cuvée have received low‑ to mid‑90s scores from leading critics, who praise the clarity of stone‑fruit and tropical‑fruit character, finely judged sweetness and powerful yet elegant acid‑mineral backbone.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing and Cellaring\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at 8–10°C in small to medium white‑wine glasses, allowing a few minutes in the glass for the tropical‑fruit and floral notes to open up. This Spätlese Off Dry pairs particularly well with Asian cuisine, mildly spicy dishes, pork or duck with fruit components, rich poultry, and soft or semi‑soft cheeses, and it can be enjoyed now or cellared 15–20 years to gain layers of beeswax, dried fruit and petrol while retaining freshness.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlcohol: about 10–11% ABV, typical for off‑dry Mosel Spätlese of this style.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eResidual Sugar: off‑dry\/feinherb Spätlese level; clearly perceptible sweetness balanced by intense acidity.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClosure: cork, consistent with green‑capsule Bernkasteler Badstube Spätlese bottlings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Cellar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47793220649131,"sku":"MMO019-23","price":256.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3023\/7867\/files\/markus_molitor_bernkasteler_badstube_riesling_auslese_off_dry_1_1.jpg?v=1789202484","url":"https:\/\/www.regiswine.com.hk\/products\/markus-molitor-bernkasteler-badstube-riesling-spatlese-off-dry-2023","provider":"Regis Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
