Weingut Schmitt-Kranz

The long-established company in the center of Riol manages almost exclusively direct train locations in Riol and Mehring. Riesling, Müller - Thurgau and more than 1 hectare of Burgundy varieties thrive on deep or sandy-loamy soils as well as on slate soil. Some new varieties are also being cultivated successfully. Where necessary, the grapes are picked by hand, but very good results are also achieved with the grape harvester. The vinification takes place in the vaulted cellar of the almost 200 year old winegrower's house in stainless steel or GRP tanks. The red wine matures in barrique barrels. Awards: Golden chamber prize coins, 4 stars in the magazine 'Selection', winning wine at the annual selection tasting of the wine advertising. Even at the tasting of the best Rioler wine of the "Vinum Primum Rigodulense", the company has already been able to produce 4 winning wines in 15 years.
