Weingut Markus Molitor Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese** Goldkapsel is a top-tier late-harvest Riesling from the iconic Graacher Himmelreich vineyard - one of the Mosel’s most celebrated sites with steep, slate-rich slopes that retain heat and impart distinctive mineral clarity. The Goldkapsel designation signals the estate’s highest quality level within the Auslese category, made from hand-selected, very ripe grapes that combine concentration with finesse.

On the nose, the wine reveals layers of ripe orchard and stone fruits such as apricot, pear and peach, complemented by citrus blossom, honeyed nuances and a clear slate-mineral thread. On the palate it balances richness with striking acidity, producing a refined interplay of sweetness and freshness rather than overt heaviness.

The texture is lush yet lifted by saline minerality and a persistent, elegant finish that reflects the vineyard’s terroir. With ample acidity and structural depth, this Auslese Goldkapsel has strong aging potential, developing additional complexity over years in bottle.

It pairs beautifully with rich, spiced cuisine, foie gras, fruit-based desserts or creamy cheeses, while also rewarding slow, contemplative tasting on its own.
