2023 Markus Molitor Erdener Treppchen Riesling Auslese*** Sweet

來自艾登納天階的精選甜酒，香氣以蜜桃、杏與蜂蜜打底，帶有清新的花香與典型的茴香／茴香籽氣息，礦質感明顯。口感豐滿但不厚重，甜度豐富而被緊緻的酸度支撐，產生清爽與層次感；尾韻細緻且持久。

酒莊與釀法：馬庫斯梅麗特在摩澤爾以注重園務與選果聞名，天階地塊為陡峭板岩斜坡，夜間涼爽使果實保留香氣與酸度。採收嚴格挑選，溫和壓榨、低溫發酵以保留香氣與純淨度，最終以平衡的餘糖與活力酸度呈現甜酒的優雅。

飲用建議：稍微醒30分鐘左右更能釋放香氣，冰爽飲用最能體現甜與酸的平衡。搭配果派、鴨肝或帶微辣的亞洲料理都很合適。

This Goldene Kapsel Auslese from the Treppchen site opens with a bright bouquet of ripe orchard fruits and honeyed notes, threaded with floral lift and a distinctive anise/fennel character from the slate terroir. On the palate it shows concentrated stone-fruit and citrus-zest flavors balanced by racy acidity, delivering medium body, a lush yet finely structured sweetness and a very long, focused finish.

Producer notes: From Weingut Markus Molitor, this selection represents late-harvest fruit from steep, slate-rich parcels in Erden. Grapes are carefully hand-selected to achieve ripe, botrytised or late-harvest concentration when appropriate, then gently pressed and fermented slowly to preserve aromatic precision.

Winemaking & vineyard: The wine reflects meticulous vineyard work on the Treppchen terraces — cool Mosel nights and mineral slate soils give vibrancy and signature anise-fennel notes. Fermentation is controlled and slow to retain purity; residual sweetness is balanced by lively natural acidity, allowing excellent ageing potential.

Serving suggestion: A brief decant (about 30 minutes) will open aeration and perfume. Serve chilled alongside fruit desserts, foie gras or nuanced spicy-Asian dishes.
