✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the historic Wolfberger cooperative, established in 1902 in the picturesque village of Eguisheim, 'Epices' is a testament to the rich tapestry of Alsace winemaking. Crafted to showcase the intensely aromatic and exotic side of the region's noble grapes—particularly Gewurztraminer and Pinot Gris—this wine captures the essence of the unique Alsace terroir. Sheltered by the Vosges Mountains, the vineyards benefit from a sunny, semi-continental microclimate and complex clay-limestone soils. This slow-ripening environment coaxes out rich, opulent notes of ginger, white pepper, lychee, and exotic spices. Wolfberger's winemakers masterfully balance this aromatic intensity with a delicate off-dry finish, paying homage to centuries of regional blending traditions that celebrate the natural, spicy character of Alsatian whites.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Wolfberger blev grundlagt i 1902 i den historiske landsby Eguisheim, da en gruppe fremsynede lokale vinbønder slog sig sammen om at skabe et af Alsaces mest markante og indflydelsesrige kooperativer. Huset har altid været en pioner inden for regional nytænkning og spillede blandt andet en afgørende rolle ved den officielle etablering af Crémant d'Alsace AOC i 1976, hvor århundreders traditioner blev forenet med moderne vinfremstilling. Wolfberger forvalter i dag en omfattende mosaik af terroirs i Alsace med stort fokus på bæredygtig vindyrkning og minutiøs parcellokalisering. Huset er bredt anerkendt for sine klassiske enkeltdruevine – heriblandt aromatisk Gewurztraminer, mineralsk Riesling og velstruktureret Pinot Noir – samt elegante mousserende Crémant-vine, rigt koncentrerede Vendanges Tardives og traditionelt frugtbrændevin.
