Tasting Notes

The light, racy style of Mosel wines as typified by Piesporter is perfect for those seeking a slightly drier style of German wine. This is a beautiful fragrant, medium bodied wine with up front fruit that continues to develop on the palate. Hints of peaches and green apples are balanced perfectly with crisp acidity to provide a clean and fresh finish. Ideal by itself or to complement a variety of meat and seafood dishes.

Other Notes

Over 200 years ago the founders settled in the small village of Lonquich, located along the Mosel River in the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer wine region, and began their involvement in vineyard management and wine production. In 1919 Hilar Schmitt, founded the parent company as a small regional winery and set forth his philosophy of producing the best wines possible using only top quality grapes from each successive vintage. Always mindful of their ansestors philosophy, the winery, which is still located in Longuich, has continued to grow and change through the guidance of three successive generations to become Schmitt Sohne, one of the largest and most successful German wine producers today.
