Producer

Producer

The Zeltinger Sonnenuhr, from which this exceptional Riesling originates, is an iconic Moselle vineyard. Its name, meaning "Zeltingen sundial," testifies to its ideal sun exposure, allowing for optimal grape ripening. The terroir is characterized by blue slate soils, which impart a distinctive minerality and unique aromatic complexity to the wines. The vineyard's steep slopes necessitate meticulous manual labor, guaranteeing the exceptional quality of the grapes. climat The Moselle region, with its hot summers and mild autumns, promotes the development of aromas and the balance of sugars and acidity.

Owner and history

Markus Molitor embodies the passion and expertise passed down from generation to generation. He is the face of the domaine family business, which he runs with a clear vision: to produce exceptional Rieslings, capable of reflecting the richness and diversity of the Moselle terroirs. His commitment to quality and his respect for nature make him an essential winemaker in the region.

Vinification and aging

The winemaking of this Auslese Riesling is carried out with the utmost care, respecting time-honored traditions. The grapes, hand-harvested at peak ripeness, are rigorously selected to retain only the finest berries. Fermentation takes place slowly in stainless steel tanks, preserving the freshness and delicate aromas of the Riesling. Aging on fine lees adds complexity and texture to the wine. Markus Molitor favors a minimalist approach, allowing the terroir to fully express itself in each bottle.
