✨ Technical Specifications
Wolfberger, established in 1902 in the historic village of Eguisheim, is one of Alsace's most venerable cooperatives, celebrated not only for its fine wines but also for its mastery of traditional fruit liqueurs. The Crème de Mûre represents a centuries-old Alsatian heritage of capturing the essence of forest fruits. Crafted by macerating carefully selected, ripe blackberries in neutral spirit before sweetening, this liqueur showcases a deep ruby-purple hue and an intense, velvety fruit concentration. It reflects the region's rich distilling folklore, where local artisans historically utilized the abundant wild berries of the Vosges foothills to create luscious fruit elixirs.
🍾 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.
