Trimbach
About Trimbach
Established in 1626, the House of Trimbach is now into its 12th generation of masterful Alsatian vignerons. Pierre and Jean Trimbach remain incredibly involved in all aspects of winemaking across their ancestorial Domaine, taking charge of everything from planting and vinification to selection and bottling. This total emotionally invested control over the entire vinous process from soil to bottle is a rare thing for owners to exercise in modern times.

Wine Advocate (95+)As readers know Trimbach's iconic Clos Sainte Hune comes from a 1.67 hectare plot on the Grand Cru Rosacker but is sold as Clos Ste Hune since 1919. The densely planted vines are pretty old (more than 50 years on average), with the oldest planted in the 1940s and the youngest in the 1980s. Bottled, like all the prestigious wines of Trimbach in April 2014, the 2013 Riesling Clos Ste Hune shows a very clear and deep, dusty/smoky, mineral nose which impressively reflects the Muschelkalk terroir. Rich, precise and pure also on the nobly textured and highly elegant palate this expressive and full-bodied Riesling is penetrating mineral and piquant but also very juicy. The finish is extremely long and complex. Very promising and stunningly accessible already. However, this wine won't be in the market before 2019/20. |
