  The Wine Advocate
  The 2020 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Auslese ** (White Capsule) comes out pure and intense and with amazing finesse and complexity, reminiscent of ripe and warm stone fruit and chamomile aromas along with notes of almond cake and notes of weathered slate. On the palate, this is a spectacularly good two-starred Auslese with a concentrated but pristine texture but also refreshing phenolics on the saline finish. This is a sublime, nuanced and complex Riesling from one of the Mosel's most exciting vineyards where Molitor holds by far the majority. His 2020 Auslese ** is full of energy, tension and salinity, and dare I say, planet wine doesn't have that much to compete at this level of terroir expression and quality for a price of an incredible 40 euros ex-cellar. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 43 21 in July 2022."

  James Suckling
  Expansive peach, nectarine and apricot nose that’s so much subtler than those words sound. Stunning concentration and intense slate minerality give this astonishing stature for a wine with just 11.5% alcohol. Very long and refined finish that’s bristling with slate character. Drink or hold."

  In der Nase anfänglich leicht verhalten, dann zarte Mineralik, auch Jod, frische Brise Seeluft und Zitrusfrüchte. Am Gaumen stoffig und dicht mit Anklängen von Rauch und frischem Heu, große Saftigkeit mit üppigem Trinkfluss, sehr 
erwachsen und köstlich!"
