In Germany, Markus Molitor's unerring faith in the quality of the steep, slate covered slopes of the middle Mosel gives him the confidence to be genuinely non-interventionist and allows the most wonderful, individual expressions of terroir to shine through in his tense, excitingly balanced wines.
Alte Reben is harvest from 60 year-old vines using Auslese quality ripe grapes but vinified almost dry. Intense, fresh minerally nose is vivid and full. The palate is savoury and minerally with clean limey fruit. Delicious and intense. An impressive minerally wine.
