Schellmann
Schellmann operates in the Thermenregion, Austria's warmest wine zone, where thermal springs and south-facing slopes create conditions for both classical white varieties and red wines. The winery draws on the region's signature grapes: Rotgipfler, Gelber Muskateller, and Zierfandler—indigenous varieties that thrive in this microclimate and define Gumpoldskirchen's character. In Gumpoldskirchen, a blend of these whites alongside Riesling and Traminer, shows the breadth of the terroir. Schellmann also produces Anning Pinot Noir, a red that reflects the region's capacity for cool-climate elegance despite its thermal reputation. The Ossi Grüner Veltliner rounds the portfolio with Austria's most planted white variety, known for its mineral spine and green-fruit profile. Wine Spectator has rated the winery's releases, anchoring them in the critical conversation around Thermenregion quality.
