Markus Molitor is one of Germany's most acclaimed winemakers, renowned for producing outstanding Rieslings from his estate in the Mosel valley. Taking over the family winery in 1984 at the age of 20, he expanded the estate to include prized, steep-sloped vineyards in both the Middle Mosel and Saar regions. For the Haus Klosterberg Riesling, Molitor sources grapes from a blend of his vineyards along the Mosel River, where the slate soil is known for imparting exceptional minerality and focus to the finished wine. His winemaking philosophy centers on uncompromising, quality-driven production, including meticulous manual harvesting and spontaneous fermentation using natural yeasts. The resulting wines, including the Haus Klosterberg, are praised for their terroir-specific character and elegance.
