Meyer lemons, a touch of Lavender, and limestone minerality round out the pretty, Springtime aromas of Markus Molitor’s 2020 Wehlener Klosterberg Riesling Spätlese. A dose of residual sugar and lees aging give the wine depth and body, while a punchy jolt of acidity breathes life and energy into it. This is a beautiful wine, marrying sugar and acidity to great effect.
