ABOUT THIS WINE
The Deep Roots Pink Riesling is a unique wine-based drink from Germany's Rheinhessen region, created by the innovative winemaking collective '3 Winner'. This group, comprising Jochen Dreissigacker, Stefan Winter, and Philipp Wittmann, is known for its modern approach to winemaking. The wine's designation as a 'wine-based drink' is a deliberate choice to comply with European Union regulations, achieved through a blend of 96% Riesling, 3.99% Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir), and 0.01% water. This approach allows the winemakers to craft a distinct rosé-style beverage that reflects their innovative spirit and the character of their home region.
