Trimbach Riesling (75cl, 12.5%)

A dry Alsatian Riesling from Maison Trimbach, bottled in a 750ml format. Roughly 25% of the blend comes from Grand Cru vineyards. The wine is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel and concrete vats and undergoes no malolactic fermentation. The 2021 vintage earned a Gold medal at the Sakura Wine Awards in Japan. The nose shows white flowers, citrus blossom, ripe pear, candied orange and a mineral, flinty undertone. The palate is crisp and precise, with green apple, lemon zest, white peach, passion fruit, slate minerality and bright acidity, with a creamy depth. The finish is medium in length, clean and minerally, with preserved lemon and wet stone.
