Schmitges
Andreas Schmitges is a very serious vintner, who is not only diligent, but also extremely precise when it comes to the production of special wines from the top Erden vineyards. His Erdener Treppchen and Prälat are prime examples of the greatness of these exceptional vineyard sites. Since 2004, we have been importing these classic middle Mosels from the greatest bend on the river--the one that stretches from Erden to Bernkastel.
