2020 Riesling, Auslese***, Erdener Prälat, Markus Molitor, Mosel, Germany (Gold Cap)

Description

7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 146 22 in July 2022.

Molitor's golden-yellow colored 2020 Riesling Erdener Prälat Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) indicates perfect botrytis that has concentrated perfectly ripe and zesty Riesling fruit with citrus fruit notes. On the palate, this is a highly concentrated, zesty and spectacular fresh Prälat given its warm terroir adjacent to the Mosel River.

Dense and fleshy yet also crystalline and savoury, the 2020 Prälat Auslese is carried by acidity that comes onto the palate like a laser to cut this rich and concentrated Riesling into very thin slices. This wine is incredibly precise and piquant and wakes up all the senses, even far after midnight. The finish is iodine, even salivating and super precise yet still nervous and striving for calm. Not at its peak yet, but it's once again a fabulous Prälat made to age for decades and more.

Drink 2035 - 2100
