This wine is a 2017 Markus Molitor Riesling Beerenauslese from Saarburger Rausch, a steep Saar site in the Mosel known for elegant, fine-slate wines. The wine is bottled as a 375 ml dessert wine and is clearly identified as Riesling from Germany’s Mosel region. The available source describes the style as extremely ripe and concentrated, with natural sweetness balanced by very high acidity and a long, precise finish.
Tasting Notes
Published notes mention floral honey, mushroom, dried apricot, peach, quince, lime, lemon chutney, and fig-like nuances. The palate is described as lush, finessed, precise, and highly concentrated, with a savage or bitter-piquant edge that adds energy.
Awards and Accolades
96 points, Wine Advocate. 95 points, James Suckling.
Serving and Cellaring
Serve well chilled in a small dessert-wine glass. This is a wine with significant aging potential and is described as the kind of rare Mosel sweet wine that can develop beautifully over time.
