Green Cap which is off dry which is the super sleeper category at Molitor. Might be the best of the green/gold and white. Yea, I said it. Stunning nose of slate, lime flesh, lime sweet tart, huge slate, just so good. Palate is so juicy, so vibrant, so alive and just bursting with lime fruit and has ridiculous personality. Really elegant. Salty, crunchy and structured. A remarkable wine and value. Super long. So close to a 9.5. Maybe it is one? Let air determine.

I’ve found some of the previous Molitor bottles to have a bit of an off note but nothing like that here. Nice spatlese. Was hoping for a smidge more acid but nice.

Barely off dry, surprising for a Spatlese with fairly low alcohol. Sharp acidity
