Established in 1626, the Trimbach family has a wine-making history stretching back almost 400 years. It was not until the late 19th century, however, under the leadership of Frédéric-Emile Trimbach, that the business began to expand. Success came when he exhibited the wines at an international fair in Brussels in 1898, to much acclaim. Since the days of Frédéric-Emile the house of Trimbach has remained a family run business, based in Ribeauvillé. Today, Jean and Pierre Trimbach are in charge of the winery. The Trimbach family currently own vineyards scattered across three villages, with an emphasis on planting Riesling and Gewurztraminer, and the style associated with the house is one of dry structure and flavorsome with firm acidity where appropriate. Trimbach are not particularly known for their red wines, but they do produce a basic Pinot Noir as well as a Reserve Personelle, as well as basic cuvées of many of the typical Alsatian varieties, including Riesling Read more »

Nuts and minerals on the nose. Attack is plain and dry but enjoyable once I got over the thought that I was munching down on a lemon. That first pucker was profound. Finish has slight hints of pear but disappears very quickly. Read More

Light golden hue, nose of minerals, fruit and some typical Riesling plastic-ness. Acidic attack followed by some lush fruit. Fairly full bodied, with a slightly sharp finish. Good, but a little pricey for the quality for me. Read More

Perhaps just over the hill, but the nose of apples, citrus and a hint of mineral lead to a mouth that was dominated by grass and ethyls..some apple and mineral. Read More
