Edition Rot trocken - Weingut Schmitges

The barrel-aged Edition Rot from the Mosel wine-growing region reveals itself in the glass in a bright purple-red. On the nose, this red wine from Weingut Schmitges reveals all sorts of strawberries and raspberries.

This red wine from Weingut Schmitges is just the thing for purists who prefer to drink bone dry. Edition Rot comes very close to this, as it was vinified with just 0 grams of residual sugar. On the palate, the texture of this well-balanced red wine presents itself as wonderfully buttery. Thanks to the moderate fruit acidity, Edition Rot caresses the palate with a pleasing mouthfeel without lacking juicy liveliness. On the finish, this youthful wine from the Mosel wine-growing region finally delights with a beautiful length. Once again, hints of strawberry and raspberry appear.

Vinification of Weingut Schmitges Edition Rot

The basis for the balanced Edition Rot from Germany is grapes from the Dornfelder and Pinot Noir varieties. After the grape harvest, the grapes are brought to the winery as quickly as possible. There they are selected and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in small wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. After it has finished, the vegan Edition Rot is aged for a few more months in oak barrels.
