This is quite an interesting place. Wine, art and food is closely intertwined at this estate. The beautiful historic rooms of the winery houses a gallery of modern art and a restaurant, where you can combine superb food of Chef A. Kühne with the bone-dry Weingut Drei Herren wines. Restaurant Manager/ Sommelier Dirk Brauer guided us through the wine pairing lunch.
Weingut Drei Herren
This winery is one of the youngest in all of Germany. It was officially inaugurated in 2005. In 2002 art historian Prof. Dr. Rainer Beck purchased the estate and step by step he built up the wine estate. He always had a passion for wine; after all he can trace back his roots on his father’s side to a family with viticulture tradition.
There were three founding partners – hence the name: Drei Herren (Three Gentlemen). The second one was Claus Höhne, a winemaker from Radebeul who is still the vineyard manager and winemaker and a third gentleman who dropped out. In 2005 Antje Wiedemann, the saxon wine queen and later German wine princess, joined the team and the team decided to keep the name of the estate although now the ownership consists of two men and one women. Some justification came with her last name: it ends with “mann”, which means “gentleman”.
Since the beginning great care was given to the quality of the wines and every year the portfolio gets high remarks in the German wine critic circles.
