Wolfberger Gewürztraminer Vielles Vignes

A Gewürztraminer that showcases the aromatic power of old vines – spicy, full-bodied and with that typical Alsatian smoothness that makes the grape variety so distinctive.

Wolfberger is one of the most important winegrowers' cooperatives in Alsace, founded in 1902 in Eguisheim. Over 1,000 winegrowing families contribute their grapes here, including vines from particularly old vines – the so-called Vieilles Vignes . Old vines yield fewer grapes, but they are more concentrated: you can taste the difference in the glass.

The color shines a rich golden yellow. On the nose, cardamom, cinnamon, and ripe mirabelle plum unfold – classic Gewürztraminer aromas, but with a depth that younger vintages lack. On the palate, it is soft and oily-textured, the residual sweetness remains in the background, and the finish returns to the spices: long, warm, and lingering.
