This Auslese balances its honey-sweet fruit of peach, lime and passion fruit with a lively, mineral acidity, and it is precisely that interplay between sweetness and freshness you should play on. The sweetness settles softly around salt and spice, while the acidity cuts through richness and keeps the dish fresh, so the wine handles delicate shellfish, spicy Asian cuisine and salted sausages alike. The moderate sweetness matches desserts with fresh fruit and citrus without turning cloying, and the concentrated fruit meets powerful, mature cheeses in beautiful balance. Serve it for special occasions where you want intensity and elegance at the same time.

About the wine

This wine is an expression of Markus Molitor's craftsmanship and dedication to creating wines of the highest quality and highlights the unique potential of the Schlossberg estate.

The Zeltinger Schlossberg vineyard is considered one of the most prestigious vineyards in the Mosel region of Germany. The vineyards are steep and consist of slate soil, which gives the wine its characteristic minerality and complexity.

Beautiful golden color indicating ripe fruit and depth.

The fragrance offers juicy limes and ripe tangerines, with hints of exotic fruits such as passion fruit and pineapple. Delicate floral aromas such as white lilies and jasmine highlight the wine's elegance and complexity.

The taste is impressive and nuanced. The fruitiness is at the center, where ripe peaches and juicy pears dominate and give an intense and juicy taste. In addition, one can experience notes of honey that add a pleasant sweetness, and a subtle minerality that reflects the terroir of the Schlossberg field.

What is special about this wine is its ability to combine intensity and elegance. It is a complex and well-balanced wine, where the sweetness and acidity play nicely together. The sweet character is perfectly matched by a fresh and lively acidity that gives the wine its structure and contributes to its complexity and length.

It is a wine that is suitable for special occasions and fine gastronomic experiences. Serve it in beautiful large glasses. The wine has subtle sweetness and acidity. It can also be enjoyed as an exclusive aperitif or as a luxurious wine experience in itself.
