Markus Molitor

In den letzten Jahren haben sich einige Weingüter in der Moselregion einen guten Namen erarbeitet. Das Weingut Markus Molitor gehört bei den Mosel-Weingütern mittlerweile zu den Betrieben mit Weltniveau und steht an der Spitze Region. Die Mosel-Rieslinge und Spätburgunder sind herausragend. Es gibt wenige Weingüter, deren Produkte von Robert Parker einmal mit der Höchstpunktzahl von 100 Punkten bewertet wurden. Markus Molitor gehört dazu.

Im Alter von 20 Jahre übernahm Markus Molitor 1984 das gerade mal drei Hektar große Weingut in Wehlen bei Bernkastel an der Mosel von seinem Vater. Die Familie Molitor produziert Wein bereits in der achten Generation. Markus Molitor entwickelte das Weingut kontinuierlich und heute bewirtschaftet er mehr als 60 Hektar zwischen Traben-Trabach und Saarburg, die vorwiegend in Steillagen angelegt sind. Das Weingut Markus Molitor baut auf mehr als 20 hervorragenden Einzellagen an der Mosel und Saar vorwiegend Riesling an. Bekannt ist hier sicher der Name einer dieser exzellenten Steillagen, die weltberühmte Zeltinger Sonnenuhr. Manche dieser Lagen muten von außen halsbrecherisch an und haben sicher einen extremen Pflegeaufwand. Allerdings fangen diese Steillagen die Sonne wie einen Spiegel ein und nutzen jeden Sonnenstrahl. Die teilweise über 100 Jahre alten, wurzelechten Reben wachsen in den Steillagen auf Schieferböden und werden sorgsam gepflegt. Die Traubenlese erfolgt nach höchsten qualitativen Ansprüchen. Die Weine von Markus Molitor reichen von leichten, kraftvollen aber ausgewogenen Alltags-Weinen bis hin zu überaus fülligen und nachhaltigen Auslesen beispielsweise von der Zeltinger Sonnenuhr.

Product recommendation

Steffen ST Riesling Steillage trocken
This Riesling from the Rhineland-Palatinate offers notes of yellow fruit and lovely hints of lemon. It is wonderfully mineral and well-balanced. The Steffen Brothers winery has a tradition going back to the 18th century. Located near Trier, the estate is much involved in steep-slope viticulture. The cultivation of extremely steep vineyards is hard, but results in exceptionally sumptuous and fruity wines due to intense and direct sunlight. Try this dry, fruity and intensively aromatic Steffen ST Riesling Steillage trocken (dry) with pasta dishes with white sauces. You’ll enjoy discovering a stimulating and lovely fresh wine from the Moselle.
