100 The Wine Advocate: "...fermented and aged for ten months in a 1,150-liter oak barrel from Franz Stockinger, Molitor's 2015 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Auslese *** (Green Capsule) opens with a very deep, ripe and concentrated fruit aroma with flinty and yeasty flavors. Rich, round and perfectly balanced on the palate, this is a huge, big, fat, lush and exotic Riesling with an elegance and crystalline finesse that only Mosel Riesling can put against the rich opulence (or better: can lift). The acidity is perfectly integrated, and the wine is incredibly round, lush and intense, with very fine tannins that are a result of the basket pressing. Although it might not meet your expectations of a classic Mosel Riesling, I suppose this will become a legend one day. It is still a bit Burgundian, but this power, intensity and lush, elegant fruit, well... that's 150% Mosel. Let's say, this is a Condrieu-styled Riesling from the Mosel, and it doesn't have to fear any 100-pointer from anywhere in the world..."
