‘Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht, aber unsere Liebe nicht’ (marble, stone and iron break, but not our love), was a number one hit in Germany in the 1960s, and although Andreas Schmitges may just have been a tiny tot at the time, five decades later he decided to transpose the theme in a slight adaptation from the world of pop to the world of wine and put the strength of Riesling to the test versus the respective powers of oak, granite and steel.
