WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Deep Roots Riesling is produced by Drei Winner GmbH, a collaborative project by three young winemakers from Rheinhessen. The grapes are sourced from contracting winemakers in southern Rheinhessen, with an emphasis on careful vineyard management. The winemaking approach is described as cautious, aiming to preserve the purity of the fruit and the minerality of the terroir. Riesling is typically fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures and is generally not aged in oak barrels, allowing the wine's varietal characteristics and regional expression to remain prominent.
