Markus Molitor N.V. Molitor Riesling Sekt Brut, Mosel, Germany

Winery notes:  Markus Molitor has been producing sparkling wines since 1982 and is one of the pioneers in the tradition of sparkling wine in this region.  The grapes for this wine come from a variety of Molitor's vineyards along the Mosel River.  The slate soil imparts minerality and focus to the finished wine.  Aromas reminiscent of ripe pear, red apple, grapefruit, nectarine, and white peach.  Notes of brioche, stone, and white pepper on the palate. Clear, lively, refreshing with a fine bubble and refreshing mineral finish.
