Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2015 Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Auslese*** goldene Kapsel, Markus Molitor

The 2015 Riesling Ürziger Würzgarten Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) offers a very clear, deep, intense and complex stone fruit aroma with some very discreet toast and crushed stone flavors. Full-bodied, rich and powerful but enormously racy-piquant and mineral so that you don't taste its sweetness, this is a great, expressive terroir wine with a huge inner concentration that comes from the soils rather than dried berries. It is based on grapes with dry raisins due to perfect botrytis combined with healthy berries that deliver the tremendous freshness in this gorgeous Auslese that also reveals some fine tannins from the aging partly in small oak. - Stephan Reinhardt, Apr. 2017

Mosel Fine Wines - 2015 Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Auslese*** goldene Kapsel, Markus Molitor

This offers a big yet beautiful nose of canned yellow peach, apricot and honeyed herbs. The wine is delicately oily on the palate and leaves a superbly complex feel of apricot, date and honeyed herbs in the long finish. This is nicely made, full blown BA-styled dessert wine. 2030-2055+. - Okt. 2016
