Hi Guys...
I am a big fan of Molitor's reds as well as well...
I had the 'pleasure' to drink the
Graacher Himmelreich *** Pinot Noir 2007 last September
Perfect Pinot colour...and a gorgeous ripe nose.The palate throws up gentle spices...toast and smoke...clear incisive fruit...a youthful bitter note which is positive...tannin present but woven into the whole....14% would scare me usually but nothing scary about this top wine.

I know the Mosel is primarily a Riesling area...but as the climate warms...surely some growers will start to plant the grape. I have had a couple of examples from unknown growers which have been delightful. Maybe most properties think there is enough of the stuff elsewhere...pity...as the style is very much to my liking
