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.
