Riesling Schiefersteil (White Capsule) Molitor 2016 (750ML)

90 points, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate: "The 2016 Riesling "Schiefersteil" (always AP #10) offers a clear, flinty, beautifully pure and bright Mosel Riesling with refreshing flinty aromas. Sourced only in steep vineyards along the Middle Mosel, this is a lithe and delicate dry Riesling with beautiful freshness and purity as well as lots of lemon and limoncello flavors in the delicate yet ripe, concentrated fruit finish. This is an impressive classic Mosel Riesling exclusively from slatey top vineyards, which you can seriously taste. The finish is pure and refreshingly mineral. Tasted in March 2018." 3/18

90 Points, David Schildknecht, Vinous: "Crushed stone and smoke inflections on the nose announce a distinctively delicious departure from the character of the corresponding Haus Klosterberg bottling, and point to sourcing that ranges into Erden and Ürzig as well as Ockfen on the Saar. Lime, tangerine and strawberry deliver a luscious, bright fruit mélange. A polished feel and a buoyant, refreshingly persistent finish render this irresistible." 1/18
