Tasting note
A wine of elegant vivacity, its aromas of citrus fruits and white flowers translate into fruitiness and fullness on the palate. It is crisp and seductive, the very definition of Alsatian Riesling, firmly anchored in the Trimbach style - dry, pure and balanced. The finish is sapid and underlined by a beautiful salinity whetting the appetite.
Viticulture
From the Trottacker-Forst area in Ribeauvillé where marl, limestone and sandstone soils nurture old vines over 45 yrs of age, with a south-east exposure. In Bergheim, the sites of Haguenau, Pflaenzer, and the Grand Cru Altenberg feature limestone soils and stony red marls, shallow yet rich in fossils, home to vines over 50 years old with a southern exposure.
Vinification
Our grapes are selected at maturity then crushed and delicately pressed in a pneumatic press. Vinified in a dry style in stainless steel vats. No malolactic fermentation, or long ageing on lees in order to preserve freshness, liveliness and fruity aromas. Bottled in spring, then 1 year of ageing minimum in the cellar.
Food Match
It can be shared simply as an aperitif and is also perfect with seafood, sashimi, ceviche, marinated or grilled fish. Refreshing on rich dishes, in sauce, for example a white fish with beurre blanc, chicken in the pot, choucroute or even raclette
