Very typical in its 'bracing' (i.e. hair-raising) acidity, with a very clean if slightly alkaline nose. The palate is all front-end citrus and a bit of petrol, disappointingly lacking in any honeyed notes. Perhaps it will grow into itself -- but it seems to me lacking in the structure to do so, and there are better rieslings at this price from Alsace or elsewhere.

Clear bright, aromas of lemon curd and orange peel, racy acidity carries flavors of herbaceous lemons, Asian pears and wet rock with focused acidity and length.

I really like the riesling from the elsas region. Their taste is very crisp what I enjoy. I planned to visit Trimbach in Ribeauville but I had trouble with the parking there so I did not visit Trimbach. Fortunately their wines are available in Holland.

Classic Alsace Riesling. Acidity is there, but not overwhelming. A bit of depth and texture would really help boost it's overall enjoyment.

A family-run winery since 1626 with some of the best Grand Cru vineyards in Alsace. This, the basic Riesling, is delicate yet firm, fresh, dry and finely mineral.

The classic grape of Alsace. At once delicate and vital, its intense fruit is given great length by a backbone of crisp acidity producing some of the world’s greatest and long-lasting wines. Tasting notes: Beautiful in color with a hint of green on the edge, this wine needs a few more months to reveal its potential and will age gracefully another few years. The nose is developed and shows a hint of mineral flavor associated with good ripeness and acidity and a lingering clean and dry finish. It is ready to drink now but has the potential to age another five years. Food pairing: An ideal accompaniment to traditional Alsace-style dishes such as goose and pork. Riesling is one of very few wines to be able to match sushi or sushi-styled foods.

Classique Riesling Réserve 2007 - Trimbach : Classique Riesling Réserve 2007 - Weißwein von TrimbachEin wunderbar finessreicher und fruchtiger Riesling Rèserve, der aus vollreifem Traubengut vinifiziert wurde. Ein Weißwein, der bereits jung außergewöhnlich schmackhaft und saftig ist. Dieser Riesling ist durchaus langlebig mit einem guten  Alterungspotential. Nur ausgewählte Trauben werden aus den verschiedenen Lagen - überwiegend junge Grand Cru Lagen - in Ribeauvillé für diesen Weißwein gelesen. Nach dem sorgfältigen Entrappen und schonendem Pressen wird der Most vorgeklärt. In Edelstahlbehältern findet anschließend die Vergärung statt. Auf diese Weine kann sich das feine Rieslingaroma entwickeln. Danach darf der Wein zur Reife ins Holzfass und reift schließlich für mindestens zwei Jahre auf der Flasche, ehe er auf den Markt kommt. Nur so kann die richtige Genussreife garantiert werden.Der Classique Riesling Réserve 2007 von Trimbach ist besonders zu den kulinarischen Spezialitäten des Elsass zu empfehlen, schmeckt aber auch hervorragend zu Meeresfrüchten, edeln Fischgerichten oder Hühnchen und Kalb in einer feinen Weißweinsoße.Weingut: TrimbachLand: FrankreichRegion: Elsass Rebsorte: 100% RieslingInhalt: 0,75 lAlkoholgehalt: 12,0 Vol.%Fassreife: Holzfassempfohlene Serviertemperatur: 8-12 °CLagerfähigkeit: 4-6 Jahre ab Jahrgang Weißwein > Frankreich > Elsass

Winemaker's Notes:

Since 1626, Maison Trimbach has been producing traditional Alsace wines recognised all over the world. The Trimbachs have always had a purist vision. For 12 generations, the Family has been producing dry wines, very strictly structured, long-living and fruity, elegant and balanced: it's the Trimbach Style! The Trimbachs let their wines age in the bottles in the cellar for a few, or sometimes several years before they release them on the market, especially for the Great Wines, such as Riesling Cuvée Frédéric Emile. Maison Trimbach's vineyards are all situated around Ribeauvillé, where the soils are dominant in limestone. They benefit from the alsatian microclimate, thanks to the Vosges Mountains protection, which preserves the plain from the rain. Elegant and classic with grapefruit and white peach on the nose fully integrated into a food-friendly structure. The drivers are minerality and a crisp lemony acid backbone leading in to a long finish. This Riesling is dry, elegant and restrained, with a deliciously food-friendly bite. In Alsace this edge is what goes so well with, and cuts straight through, the local cuisine. Goose, sauerkraut and onion quiche are the watchwords here. Moving out of Alsace, it would be ideal with rich fish dishes, rice (legendary with kedgeree), pork and modern oriental food from sushi to light curries.
