Markus Molitor, Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese, 2007
The 2007 Markus Molitor Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese comes from a superb German vintage. 【The 2007 vintage in Germany was exceptional, characterized by a warm spring and autumn that yielded luscious, ripe grapes.】 Markus Molitor is celebrated for his diverse range of Rieslings, with Spätlese indicating a late-harvest wine with a delightful level of residual sweetness.
Expect a wine with good sweetness and a slightly syrupy texture, offering rich peach notes, hints of caramelized sugar, and ripe passion fruit. Underlying limey acidity provides balance, leading to a finish with a subtle honeyed touch. Other notes might include melon, honey, musky spices, and earthy undertones of minerals and flint.
