✨ Technical Specifications
Wolfberger, established in 1902 in the historic medieval village of Eguisheim, is a cornerstone of Alsatian winemaking heritage. The 'Collection Signature' Pinot Gris showcases the cooperative's deep-rooted expertise and the unique terroir of Alsace, sheltered by the Vosges Mountains which create a dry, sunny microclimate. Pinot Gris, historically linked to the legendary 'Tokay d'Alsace' moniker—which folklore suggests was brought to the region by General Lazare de Schwendi in the 16th century—thrives in Alsace's diverse soils. This wine is crafted to highlight the grape's natural opulence, offering a rich, round palate balanced by vibrant acidity. It undergoes gentle pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel to preserve its expressive aromas of ripe yellow fruits, honey, and a signature touch of smoky complexity.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1902 in the historic village of Eguisheim, Wolfberger was established when visionary local winegrowers united to create one of Alsace's most prominent and influential cooperative houses. A pioneer in regional innovation, the producer played an instrumental role in the official establishment of the Crémant d'Alsace AOC in 1976, harmonizing centuries-old regional tradition with modern winemaking precision. Wolfberger carefully oversees a vast mosaic of Alsace terroirs, emphasizing sustainable viticulture and meticulous parcel selection. The house is widely acclaimed for its classic single-varietal expressions—including aromatic Gewurztraminer, mineral-driven Riesling, and structured Pinot Noir—alongside elegant Crémant sparkling wines, lusciously concentrated Vendanges Tardives, and traditional fruit brandies.
