✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from Alsace, France, Wolfberger is a historic cooperative founded in 1902 in the picturesque village of Eguisheim. While globally renowned for its classic Alsatian varietals and Cr mant, Wolfberger also draws upon a century-old tradition of distilling artisanal eaux-de-vie to create innovative specialty spirits and liqueurs. This chocolate-infused specialty represents a playful fusion of Alsatian distilling expertise and confectionery indulgence. Crafted by blending high-quality cocoa extracts with a refined spirit base, it showcases the cooperative's versatility and commitment to modern flavor profiles while honoring the region's historical heritage of fruit distillation and gourmet craftsmanship.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1902 in the historic medieval village of Eguisheim, Wolfberger began as the Cave Coopérative Vinicole d'Eguisheim, among the pioneering winegrower unions of Alsace. Today, the cooperative unites over 300 member families cultivating roughly 1,200 hectares spanning across the Haut-Rhin and Bas-Rhin, including holdings across 15 Grand Cru sites such as Pfersigberg, Eichberg, and Rangen. Viticultural parcels traverse diverse geological foundations—ranging from classic limestone-clay and marl to fractured granite and steep volcanic scree—sheltered by the rain shadow of the Vosges Mountains. Viticulture adheres to rigorous sustainable guidelines through HVE Level 3 and Agri-Confiance certifications, complemented by dedicated certified-organic bottlings. Wolfberger has cemented its international reputation as both an innovator and benchmark producer of AOC Crémant d'Alsace, alongside precision-led still varietals. Its benchmark wines range from vibrant Riesling and Gewurztraminer Vieilles Vignes to richly concentrated Vendanges Tardives and botrytized Sélection de Grains Nobles.
