Markus Molitor Bernkasteler Lay Auslese 2020
Descripción
Lay es una parcela de Bernskastel que suele pasar desapercibida por la reputación mediática que tiene la vecina Bernkasteler Doktor, pero no hay que despistarse porque es un viñedo de primer nivel y con una calidad sin parangón para su riesling de viñas viejas. La pizarra de esta parcela es tremendamente fina y las uvas maduran adquiriendo una fruta extremadamente elegante para este blanco seco de mineralidad precisa y perfectamente equilibrada.

Opinión de los críticos
The 2020 Riesling Bernkasteler Lay Auslese ** (White Capsule) is pure, refined and fresh on the precise and concentrated but bright and shining, transcendental nose that is intense and ripe but doesn't show any tropical fruit aromas. Crystalline, highly refined and saline on the palate, this is a rich and very intense Riesling whose electric acidity takes all the weight and concentration up a steep flight to heaven, where the wine flies possibly forever like a satellite around the globe. The finish is so juicy, so saline and so precise that one can't leave the glass without a sense of wonder. So much finesse and intensity in one glass? 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 50 21 in July 2022. - Stephan Reindhardt.
Plenty of white fruit in the nose and nice, citrusy freshness, but this is a bit shy on the palate. Tight and highly structured with a a cool herb and slate finish. Try to be patient, because this one has so much to give if you can wait. Drinkable now, but best from 2023.
