✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted by Wolfberger, a historic cooperative founded in 1902 in the picturesque Alsatian village of Eguisheim, 'Neo Ananas' represents a modern, innovative chapter in Alsace's winemaking heritage. Wolfberger has long been recognized for pioneering new styles while respecting traditional methods. With the 'Neo' range, they venture into contemporary flavored wine-based beverages. This expression utilizes a crisp, clean Alsatian white wine base—typically sourced from classic regional varieties like Pinot Blanc or Silvaner—infused with natural pineapple (ananas) flavors. The result is a playful, aromatic fusion that marries the bright, refreshing acidity of Alsace's cool-climate terroir with a vibrant, exotic tropical fruit profile, designed to offer an approachable and festive drinking experience.
🍾 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.
