The estate and its eponymous proprietor gained worldwide attention in 2015 – and the nickname \"Herr 300 Punkte\" (Mr 300 Points) – when three Auslese Rieslings from the 2013 vintage received 100-point ratings from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. The estate cultivates vineyards in 15 different sites in the Mosel and Saar, including plots in the famous winemaking villages of Wehlen, Zeltingen-Rachtig and Bernkastel. Some 94 percent of plantings are Riesling, with Pinot Blanc and some rare Pinot Noir accounting for the rest – historically there had been considerable plantings of the latter in the Mosel.

It was purpose-built at the end of the 19th Century and acquired by Markus Molitor in 1984, who carried out extensive renovations between 2009 and 2012. The winery features an old three-storey cellar cut out of the slate, giving permanently cool conditions with high humidity for the aging wines. The grapes are fermented slowly using indigenous yeasts in large barrels at low temperatures, often slowing to a pause in winter, then finishing off in the spring.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-08T13:56:22-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-08T19:07:24-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Germany","Other_Wine","Producer_Markus Molitor","Region_Mosel","RK0802","Source_Bestofwines0223","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Riesling"],"price":59899,"price_min":59899,"price_max":59899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42771067207818,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2020 | Markus Molitor | Erdener Treppchen Auslese ***","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":59899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_e608058b-ea7a-44a6-aaac-838fae61600f.png?v=1675901308"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_e608058b-ea7a-44a6-aaac-838fae61600f.png?v=1675901308","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2020 | Markus Molitor | Erdener Treppchen Auslese *** at CaskCartel.com","id":24200253931658,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.269,"height":703,"width":189,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_e608058b-ea7a-44a6-aaac-838fae61600f.png?v=1675901308"},"aspect_ratio":0.269,"height":703,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_e608058b-ea7a-44a6-aaac-838fae61600f.png?v=1675901308","width":189}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2020 | Markus Molitor | Erdener Treppchen Auslese ***\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoached apple and citrus aromas are light and balanced, picking up orange, tangerine and lime notes on the crisp finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Markus Molitor\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWA\u003c\/span\u003e | 98\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage: \u003c\/b\u003e2020\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Riesling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Germany, Mosel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoached apple and citrus aromas are light and balanced, picking up orange, tangerine and lime notes on the crisp finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #222223;\"\u003eReviews:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #9f250d;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e Almost Burgundian on the deep and intense nose, the 2020 Riesling Erdener Treppchen Auslese *** (White Capsule) opens with a pure and intense, very complex and nuanced, exotic bouquet of perfectly ripe stone fruit aromas intermingled with iodine and well-integrated, noble oak aromas and very fine notes of crushed slate.
