ABOUT DB SCHMITT

Bianka and Daniel Schmitt are a talented young winemaking couple in Rheinhessen, Germany. Together, they farm 16 hectares of vines in full biodynamics which they learned from Alsace vigneron Patrick Meyer. Their passion for organic viticulture and winemaking started in 2012 shortly after they met at the Schmitt estate, which has been in Daniel's family for over 200 years. Now managing the estate, they produce expressive wines made without added yeast, temperature control, sulfur or filtration. In their own words, their goal is "to create grand wines as naturally as possible that embody the true balance between man and nature. Wines that reflect our personalities as well as our creativity." They are one of only 80 producers in Germany to be Demeter certified.
