Riesling

Trimbach
A benchmark dry white from one of Alsace's most respected family houses, founded in 1626 and still run by the same family in Ribeauvillé. The 2023 vintage comes from vines planted on a mix of limestone, marl and sandstone soils, hand-picked and gently pressed before a slow, cool fermentation in stainless steel. No oak, no malolactic — just pure fruit. Expect a bright, crystalline nose of lime, white peach and a hint of flint, followed by a taut, bone-dry palate with mouthwatering acidity and a saline finish. Brilliant with oysters, trout, choucroute or simply on its own as an aperitif.
