✨ Technical Specifications

Wolfberger, established in 1902 in the medieval village of Eguisheim—the historic cradle of Alsatian viticulture—presents the Collection Signature Riesling as a tribute to the region's classic style. This wine is crafted from 100% Riesling grapes harvested from diverse clay-limestone plots across Alsace, capturing the essential tension between vibrant fruit and stony minerality. Historically, Alsace Riesling has been celebrated since the 15th century for its noble character. Wolfberger's signature vinification emphasizes temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation to preserve the pristine, aromatic purity of the grape, avoiding oak influence to let the natural acidity and subtle petrol notes shine through.

🍾 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.
