Trimbach Gewurztraminer 2018

92 POINTS: Wine Enthusiast Magazine

"Both flinty reduction and rose notes play on the nose. The palate comes in with concentration and a pithy, phenolic texture that lends structure and backbone to this rich, rounded, almost oily but dry wine. Pleasant citrus-pith bitterness sits well with the bold, warm but dry generosity. It's best to let this come into its own. Drink 2025–2035."
- Wine Enthusiast Magazine

The aromatic expression of this grape variety dominates, the very definition of the Alsace Gewurztraminer, well anchored in the dry and balanced style of the Trimbach family. Its very elegant bouquet, its crunchiness and its notes of roses, lychee and citrus fruit lead to a lively and fresh finish.

Even after 13 generations, the Trimbachs remain true to the philosophy handed down to them by their 19th century ancestor, Frédéric Emile. This means wines made to a bone-dry template, strong on structure, longevity and fruit, with unparalleled elegance, balance and food-friendly versatility. Trimbach offers a pure reflection of the sun-warmed, limestone-dominated vineyards surrounding Ribeauvillé, the medieval town the family has called home for nearly a century.
