✨ Technical Specifications

Wolfberger, established in 1902 in the historic village of Eguisheim, is a cornerstone of Alsatian winemaking and was instrumental in establishing the Crémant d'Alsace AOC in 1976. This Vieilles Vignes Rosé Brut is crafted from old-vine Pinot Noir, the sole grape permitted for Alsatian sparkling rosés. These deep-rooted vines draw complexity from Alsace's mosaic of terroirs, sheltered by the Vosges Mountains. Vinified using the traditional method with secondary fermentation in the bottle, the wine undergoes extended lees aging to develop its signature creamy texture, fine effervescence, and vibrant red fruit character.

🍾 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.
