2016 Brauneberger Mandelgraben Riesling Eiswein* goldene Kapsel Markus Molitor, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer

Mosel Fine Wines: The 2016er Brauneberger Mandelgraben Eiswein * is the result of the first press of fruit harvested on December 5 (exhibiting 146° Oechsle). This mind-blowing Eiswein immediately catches one’s attention through a multi-layered nose made of dried white flowers, elderflower, candied grapefruit, mango and honey. The wine develops the great complexity of a full-on “BA-Eiswein” on the palate, where creamy and honeyed exotic fruits mingle beautifully well with some apricot, candied grapefruit and elderflower. The finish is still slightly compact at the moment, a feeling underlined by the still quite sweet side of the wine. However, make no mistake: This will turn out into a perfect wine in a decade. This is simply magical! 2026-2056, - Okt. 2017
