WINE DESCRIPTION

Thomas Schmitt Riesling is a high-quality wine produced by the renowned German winemaker Thomas Schmitt. This wine is made from Riesling grapes grown in the Mosel region, known for its steep slopes and mineral-rich soils. The vineyard features a unique microclimate that allows the grapes to ripen slowly, resulting in a wine with a perfect balance of acidity and sweetness. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's natural flavors and aromas. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and full of fruity notes, making it an excellent choice for any occasion.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Thomas Schmitt Riesling is a delightful expression of the Riesling grape.It is a light, crisp, and refreshing wine, with a delicate bouquet of citrus, peach, and white flowers. On the palate, it shows notes of ripe apple and juicy pear, with a touch of minerality. The acidity is well-balanced, and the finish is long and persistent. Enjoy this Riesling with fish, poultry, or lighter cheeses.
