Lobenberg: Sensationeller Schmelz in Tateinheit mit Birne und weißem Pfirsich, alles unterlegt von Orangenzesten und pinker Grapefruit, Jasmin, Kalkstein, salzige Note. Nicht exotisch sondern immer klar und europäisch, ein Weißburgunder mit einem Geradeauslauf wie ein feiner Chardonnay aus dem Burgund und auch mit der entsprechenden Fülle und Cremigkeit. Ganz dezent stützendes großes Holz. Gehört sicher zu den besten Weißburgundern Deutschlands. 93-94/100

-- Galloni: This year’s cask-raised "one-star" represents the sole bottling of Pinot Blanc that Molitor essayed over and beyond the intro-level “Haus Klosterberg.” As a result, the cuvée incorporates fruit of his choicest parcels in the Wehlener Klosterberg. But it also incorporates fruit from other sites – hence the lack of vineyard designation. (The amusing inscription on the label is “Einstern*” – the first time I have ever seen the word for “one-star” as well as the attendant star on a Molitor label.) The striking combination of textural creaminess with the juicy brightness of which Pinot Blanc is capable is well-illustrated, though the lime zest and corn shoot flavors already familiar from this year’s Haus Klosterberg are in this instance edging a bit closer to outright bitterness, reinforced by apple seed, and the creamy texture comes along with a hint of lactic flavor. The finish is impressively persistent and appropriately stone-lined. This will definitely merit following, not to mention employing at table as an illustration of Pinot Blanc’s versatile, too-little-recognized culinary talents. 90/100
