Note di degustazione
Molitor has bypassed the usual “two-star” rendition of Klosterberg Pinot and instead classified the 2015 installment as “three-star.” On the nose, decidedly meaty, marrowy savor joins the shrimp-shell stock familiar from the corresponding Mandelgraben: you know that the palate is going to be rich in proteins and minerals! But there is abundant red currant and sour cherry fruit, too, which translates into welcome tang and refreshing brightness. The feel is firm and slightly grainy. Rose hip, cherry pit and smoky black tea add interest to a mouthwateringly salt-tinged, impressively persistent finish, albeit one capped with just a hint of extraneous toasted oak. This should gain significantly in bottle.

The 2015 Pinot Noir Brauneberger Klostergarten *** is deep, perfectly ripe and concentrated but beautifully fresh, highly refined and elegant on the slightly toasty fumé nose. On the palate, this is a full-bodied, lush, silky-textured, highly finessed and perfectly balanced Pinot with very fine tannins intertwined with the crystalline salinity and mineral tension of the Brauneberg terroir. The finish is very long, ripe and complex, with great energy and aging potential. Tasted in March/April 2019.
