✨ Technical Specifications
Wolfberger, established in 1902 in the medieval village of Eguisheim, presents the Collection Signature Sylvaner as a tribute to one of Alsace's most historic grape varieties. Sylvaner was once the backbone of the region's vineyards, prized for its refreshing simplicity and reliability. Grown on the diverse clay-limestone soils at the foot of the Vosges Mountains, this wine is crafted to showcase the grape's bright, thirst-quenching nature. Vinified entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve its delicate primary fruit, it offers a vibrant bouquet of white flowers, fresh citrus, and subtle herbaceous undertones, reflecting the pure, crisp essence of traditional Alsatian viticulture.
🍾 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.
