    • Rivaner

      This is a dry Müller-Thurgau that is Schmitges’ answer to Pinot Grigio. If Pinot Grigio isn’t beefy enough for you, try the Schmitges Rivaner.   This white is packed with apples, pears, mango and lime with a finish that will refresh on a 90- degree day
    • Grey Slate Riesling Dry (Grauschiefer)

      This wine comes from vineyards of grey slate soil. Smells fruity with scents  of apple, lime, pineapple and pear that are echoed on the palate. Plenty of
      tart, lightbodied, almost completely dry fruit.
    • Riesling Feinherb

      Apple and pineapple on the nose, bolstered by scents of spring flowers. Apple flavors and a long, crisply acidic finish. 
    • Riesling Kabinett von Roten Schiefer

      Citrusy and mierally on the nose, followed by apple, pear and citrus flavors. Lightly
      sweet, medium in body, with tingly acids that keep everything balanced.  
    • Riesling Spätlese Erdener Treppchen

      Intense mineral and slate aromas. Flavors of apricot and a bit of spice followed by a long, sweet, crisp finish.
