Distinction · 3 prestige critics

Materne & Schmitt produces Riesling from the Mosel, Germany's most celebrated cool-climate region. The winery's portfolio centers on three flagship expressions: Winninger Brückstück Riesling, Lehmener Ausoniusstein Riesling, and Lehmener Lay Riesling. Each draws from distinct vineyard sites along the Mosel's steep slate slopes, where Riesling achieves its characteristic balance of ripeness and acidity. Wine Advocate and Wine Spectator have rated these wines, with the Winninger Brückstück reaching 94 points and both Lehmener bottlings earning 93 points. The winery's focus remains on Riesling's mineral precision and aromatic complexity—hallmarks of serious Mosel viticulture.
