Rainer Schnaitmann makes amazing organic and biodynamic wines in the Wurttemberg region, near Stuttgart in Germany. He gave up a career in architectural studies to continue a 600-y ear-old family tradition of growing grapes - specializing in Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Lemberger. Schnaitmann, like Montes, plays classical music by candlelight for his barrels of aging wine, to create a “harmonious” environment. Steinwiege Lemberger is juicy and powerful, yet elegant with stimulating acidity and ripe, dense tannins, embedded in a charming fruit forward body. This Lemberger lingers on the palate with notes of mushroom, wild herbs, undergrowth, sour cherry, and cooked plums. Show more
