Weingut Markus Molitor’s Brauneberger Juffer Auslese*** Fruchtsüß 2019 is a striking Mosel Riesling that combines precision, intensity, and remarkable finesse.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a luminous golden hue with excellent brightness and depth. The nose is typically expressive yet refined, showing ripe stone fruit, quince, citrus blossom, honeyed notes, and a distinctive slate-driven minerality that adds tension and lift. On the palate, the wine is concentrated and layered, balancing luscious fruit sweetness with vibrant acidity, giving it a silky texture and a long, graceful finish. As with the best Mosel Auslese wines, this has the structure to age beautifully. While already highly appealing in youth, it should continue to develop complexity over the next decade or more, gaining nuances of petrol, dried fruit, spice, and more pronounced mineral depth.

Production
Brauneberger Juffer is a steep, slate-rich vineyard in the Mosel, a terroir that naturally lends Riesling its signature elegance, acidity, and mineral precision. The site’s south-facing exposure helps achieve optimal ripeness in a cool climate, allowing for the production of intensely aromatic sweet wines like Auslese. Markus Molitor is known for meticulous vineyard work and selective harvesting, typically picking by hand to ensure only the best botrytized or fully ripe grapes are chosen. Fermentation and maturation are carried out with great care to preserve finesse, clarity, and terroir expression.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs wonderfully with fruit-based desserts, tarte tatin, crème brûlée, or delicate pastries, and it is equally compelling alongside blue cheese, foie gras, or lightly spiced Asian cuisine. Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, to keep the sweetness fresh and the aromatics vibrant. Decanting is generally not necessary, but a short aeration in the glass can help the wine खुल up as it warms slightly.
