ABOUT THIS WINE
Weingut Dr. Corvers-Kauter is a highly respected 45-hectare estate in Germany's Rheingau region, run by Dr. Matthias Corvers and his son Philipp. The family's winemaking roots in the region span nearly 250 years. The "R³" moniker represents a conceptual tribute to the three historic Rheingau winegrowing towns where the family cultivates their organic fruit: Oestrich, Winkel, and Rüdesheim. By blending grapes from these distinct microclimates and soils, dominated by clay, loess, and quartz, the estate crafts a harmonious, high-energy cuvée they call "Riesling Remastered."

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes are organically grown and certified by Bioland, utilizing strict humus management and manual canopy work without chemical pesticides. Harvest is conducted entirely by hand in late autumn to ensure optimal physiological ripeness. In the cellar, the grapes undergo gentle pressing followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the pure, focused varietal fruit and natural carbon dioxide. The wine is then aged on its fine lees in stainless steel to enhance texture and depth while maintaining a clean, mineral-driven backbone.
