This is their basic Riesling. Light gold in color, clear and bright. The nose is great with some citrus, honeydew and minerality. Medium bodied. On the palate, this is dry. Melon with minerals and a bit of salinity. Good acidity. Long finish. This is nice on its own but better with food. This will work with almost any food. Try it with fried chicken. Drink over the next eight to twelve years.
This is the first vintage that Trimbach made a wine from this vineyard. Light golden in color. Great nose. There is a bit of orange peel along with minerals and a salinity on the nose. It is big right from the start. The palate takes a bit of air to get going. A relatively viscous texture. The wine is dry. Tight peaches eventually show more expressive peach along with minerals (crushed limestone). There is some warmth on the wine. Nevertheless, it worked great with food especially a Goat Cheese Tart (superb). Still young, it is drinking well now, but should continue to improve fo
Arguably the best Riesling in the world. This dry Riesling comes from Alsace. Light golden in color, clear and bright. The nose is great. Clean. Aromas of peach, slight apple, chalk, crushed stones and slight sea air. Medium to full bodied. A great backbone of acidity. On the palate, this is delicious. Dry. Notes of peach, apple and chalk. Slightly viscous texture. Long finish. Complex. Drinking great now, this should have another twenty or thirty years of life left. Very food versatile. It will match with almost anything. It would be awesome with Thai food.
This is a relatively inexpensive (although the price has probably doubled since this was released) Riesling from one of the top producers in Alsace. At age 16, it is drinking nicely. Light golden in color, clear and bright. The nose is clean, no petrol, with some apples, light citrus and a hint of minerality. Medium bodied. Slightly viscous. Moderate acidity. On the palate, this is dry. Apples and minerals. Some lemons. Moderate finish. This is past prime but still offering up something. Drink up. This is better with food. It worked with a Spinach-Artichoke dip. No easy feat.
