Willm Cherry Brandy Kirsch d’Alsace 375ml

Delve into the rich traditions of Maison Willm, where the bountiful orchards and fruits of Alsace play a pivotal role in crafting exquisite brandies, an integral part of the estate’s cherished heritage. In Alsace, it’s not uncommon for winegrowers to nurture fruit trees alongside their vineyards, a practice seamlessly woven into Maison Willm’s time-honored traditions.

Much like their renowned wines, the quality of the fruits takes center stage in crafting exceptional brandies. Harvested at the peak of ripeness, the fruits retain their essence, a crucial element in producing premium brandies that capture the essence of the local terroir.

Guided by the expertise of the Master Liquorist and House Distiller, who work with exclusive family recipes, the fruits undergo a meticulous distillation process. Employing both the “one pass” and “double pass” methods, Maison Willm carefully unveils the intricate aromas of the fruits. The resulting brandy undergoes an extended maturation period, culminating in a perfectly balanced symphony of flavors.

Established in 1896, the Willm Estate in Barr, nestled at the foot of the majestic Kirchberg de Barr Grand Cru vineyard, has always been dedicated to showcasing the best of its terroirs. Thanks to the visionary founder Emile Willm, the estate’s wines became the first from Alsace to be exported to the United States in the 1930s. Celebrated for their freshness, minerality, and elegance, Willm wines are synonymous with tradition, terroir, purity, and refinement.

Experience the essence of Alsace cherries in Maison Willm brandies, offering a fresh and elegant aroma. The subtle interplay of fruit pulp and a hint of almonds creates a sensory masterpiece.

Situated in the Barr region of northern Alsace, the Willm vineyard thrives at an altitude of 200-400 meters, stretching from the Vosges mountains to the plains of Alsace and the Rhine. Basking in a dry and sunny microclimate, thanks to the south-southeast exposure of the Barr hillsides, the vines benefit from warm days and cool nights in autumn, fostering a gradual grape maturation process. Indulge in the time-honored traditions and terroir expression of Maison Willm, where each sip tells a story of craftsmanship, legacy, and the picturesque landscapes of Alsace.
