Weingut Schmidt - A Legacy of Winemaking Since 1753

Schmidt Winery – A Rich Winemaking Heritage

Nestled in the picturesque town of Obermoschel in the Nahe region of Germany, Schmidt Winery boasts stunning landscapes and a rich winemaking tradition that dates back to 1753. The estate cultivates grapes across diverse soils, imparting unique aromas and flavors to their wines. Today, the seventh and eighth generations of the Schmidt family, led by Andreas Schmidt and Tatjana Welsch-Schmidt, along with their sons, Sebastian and Florian, continue to honor this legacy while expanding their reach in both national and international markets.

Hand-Picked Grapes from Mature Vines

Schmidt Winery's grapes thrive in a mineral-rich terroir, showcasing a variety of unique characteristics. The estate grows several varietals, including Riesling, Grauburgunder, Weißburgunder, Gewürztraminer, Silvaner, and Spätburgunder. Hand-picked from 45-year-old vines, these grapes benefit from the cool climate of the Nahe region, which allows for a long growing season. This results in wines that are rich in minerality, with notes of blue slate, fresh citrus, and peach. Schmidt Winery produces a diverse range of wine styles, including refreshing whites, robust reds, elegant rosés, and sophisticated sparkling and dessert wines.

Modern Cellar Renovations for Quality Enhancement

To continually improve the quality of their wines, Schmidt Winery has undertaken several renovations in their wine cellar over the years. Utilizing traditional bottled fermentation techniques, they have crafted sparkling wines with a distinctive character. Their red and white wines are aged in wooden barrels and tanks, allowing for optimal maturation and refinement. This commitment to quality ensures that each bottle reflects the unique terroir of the Nahe region.
