Gau Bickelheimer Kurfurstenstuck Auslese 2011

For more than 200 years the Schmitt family has been involved in the art of winemaking in the Mosel, passing on its knowledge and experience from generation to generation. In 1919 the company Schmitt Söhne was founded and today its headquarters at Longuish in the Mosel, is the focal point for its world-wide activities.

The cellars have the most modern equipment and quality is a top priority. In addition to wines from the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer Schmitt can now offer a comprehensive list of Estate wines from other important German wine growing areas.

Schmitt Söhne’s business strategy places considerable emphasis on providing a comprehensive wine portfolio that can be developed and further enhanced with innovative promotions and merchandising support. 

Schmitt Söhne export its wines to every corner of the world and place great emphasis in portraying the company as a “service partner” to their customers rather than just a normal supplier.
