Franz Karl Schmitt 2006 Niersteiner Oelberg Kabinett Riesling (Rheinhessen)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $16
This medium-bodied Riesling comes across as a bit rich and oily for the kabinett prädikat, but it still offers enjoyable drinking. Hints of dried apricot and orange marmalade shade the aromas, while the flavors are of honeyed stone fruit with some underlying petrol. Finishes clean and minerally.  — J.C.  (8/1/2008)

Franz Karl Schmitt 2009 Niersteiner Ölberg Spätlese Trocken Riesling (Rheinhessen)

  1. $23
Starts off slowly, with slightly odd, machine-oil aromas, then turns into a rather angular, high-acid Riesling for a 2009, with pear and citrus flavors that finish crisp.  — J.C.  (12/1/2011)
