98+ points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "Molitor's vividly yellow-colored 2020 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Auslese *** (White Capsule) offers an intense and complex nose of ripe fruits, potted ginger and lemon chutney notes spiced with slate plates. Very fine and elegant on the palate, this is a silky-textured, intense, muscular, very dense and concentrated Riesling Auslese that reveals great talents but should be kept for at least a decade. It has great complexity and balance and is very long and complex. Impressive. 2% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in September 2023. Drink: 2030-2070. (9/21/23)"

97 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "As imposing as it is refined, this has so much power and concentration, yet it glides almost effortlessly over your palate. Fabulous stone-fruit aromas that you could study for hours. Then comes the super-elegant and filigree finish that stretches out towards the horizon. Drink or hold. (2/7/22)"
