“Molitor’s 2019 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese **, with its golden-lemon color, opens with spectacular, dense, and intense aromas of tropical fruit that become increasingly refined, nuanced, and slate-like as it breathes. It is a fascinating beauty in the making. Lively and spirited on the palate despite its richness, with a lemony note and a firm, persistently salty mineral edge providing structure, this full-bodied WSU is a highly refined and elegant dry Auslese with an extremely stimulating finish. Although the 2019 already tastes very good, I wouldn’t drink it until it’s 20 or even 30 years old, simply because the wine will become even more complex. ” (Wine Advocate 2021)

About the wine:

Molitor’s 2019 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese ** (white capsule), with its golden-lemon hue, opens with spectacular, dense, and intense aromas of tropical fruit that become increasingly refined, nuanced, and slate-like as it breathes. It is a fascinating beauty in the making. Lively and spirited on the palate despite its richness, with a lemony note and a firm, persistently salty mineral backbone providing structure, this full-bodied WSU is a highly refined and elegant dry Auslese with an extremely stimulating finish. Although the 2019 already tastes very good, I wouldn’t drink it until it’s 20 or even 30 years old, simply because the wine will become even more complex.
