Domaine Trimbach
For nearly four centuries, the Trimbach family has championed Alsace and its history, its exceptional terroirs and its fine wines. Located in Ribeauvillé, Domaine Trimbach is now in the capable hands of Bernard and Hubert Trimbach, who inherited it from a long line of talented winemakers.

The family scrupulously oversees the management of Domaine Trimbach, from planting to harvesting, from vinification to bottling. The estate's vineyards are all located in and around Ribeauvillé, where the soils are predominantly limestone. For 12 generations, Domaine Trimbach has been producing AOC Alsace wines that are dry, straightforward, racy, lively and fruity, yet elegant and well-balanced: the now-famous "Trimbach style"!

"Pear delicacy

"Only a hint of freshly cut ripe pear skin appears briefly on the nose of this wine. The palate presents a precise picture of ripe, concentrated green pear that presents itself with purity, precision and restraint. All the fruit is there, but instead of rounding off, it soars with freshness, which is quite a feat in 2018. The finish is dry and lively." (Wine Enthusiast 2020)

"An exceptional Riesling

"The 2015 Riesling Cuvée Frédéric Emile is clear and intense but very refined on the nose, which perfectly blends minerality with concentrated lemon and smoky aromas. Round, concentrated and very elegant on the palate, this is a slightly sweeter Riesling than normal, but very fine, well-structured and perfectly saline with a long, tension-filled finish."

"An opulent Riesling

"The 2018 Riesling Grand Cru Geisberg opens with very ripe, even partially overripe or dried fruit, and lactic notes on the nose (...). This vintage was pure, fresh and well representative of the Geisberg terroir, with stony, saline notes. On the palate, it's an opulent, dense and baroque Riesling, with power, sweetness (only 3.9 grams per liter) and a firm, concentrated finish. This is another wine that needs a few years to relax and breathe." (Wine Advocate 2023)

"A jewel in a bottle

"Salty and straight in the glass, it will soon be ready, as the vintage lends itself to it. Fresh lemon and salt are the main markers". (Le Guide Bettane + Desseauve). The body of this wine is both rich and fat, with a delicately mineral finish. This is an exceptionally long-keeping white that will reach its peak after ten or so years in bottle. - Delivery in wooden cases possible for orders of 3 bottles of this wine (depending on country and shipping method selected).

"A remarkable Riesling, worthy of the 1st growths!

"This elegant, medium-density dry Riesling is bursting with white tree fruit aromas and notes of spring flowers and garden herbs. You can't fault its charm, but you can't fault its balance and structure either. The finish is long and bright, with citrus notes. Made from old vines and organic grapes from the villages of Ribeauvillé and Bergheim. Drink now. (James Suckling 2023).

"An exceptional Riesling

"Bright straw yellow. Complex, mentholated aromas of nectarine, tangerine, crushed stone and a hint of licorice. The palate is then bright, juicy and dense, showing a remarkable balance between acid and sugar and penetrating juice in flavors of stone fruit and herbs. The finish is layered and very long, with remarkable clarity and a silty character on the saline finish. Wine lovers the world over know how excellent Frédéric Emile's Rieslings can be, but this wine seems to be a real masterstroke in the making; I absolutely love the mineral strength and precision of this wine. It manages the tour de force of being both very ageable and very enjoyable to drink now. " (Vinous 2018)

"Still discreet on the nose, the palate is more expressive, and this wine is always made more slowly than the Cuvée Classique. Semi-dry in balance, its unctuousness is greedy, and its smooth touch makes it a wine for the table, perfect with spicy dishes." (Le Guide des Vins Bettane & Desseauve)

"Superb meditation wine to finish a meal in style!"

"Bright yellow-gold. Seductive aromas of peach nectar, honey, crystallized pineapple and sweet spices; spicy botrytis notes (nail polish, ginger) emerge on aeration. Silky and dense, it offers ripe apricot, sweet citrus and honey flavors, nicely lifted by ripe acidity and enhanced by a lingering spicy nuance. The finish is long and smooth. This is a selection of grapes from the same terroirs as the Cuvée des Seigneurs de Ribeaupierre. [...]" (Vinous 2019).

"For this "modest" grape, this is a remarkably elegant and sophisticated wine with lots of white fruit, including Asian pears and something floral too. Wonderful medium- to full-bodied texture on the palate and lots of chalky minerality on the long finish. Drink it or keep it." (James Suckling 2020)

The perfect accompaniment to an entire meal, this Gewurztraminer will sublimate exotic cuisine with spicy notes, as well as fruity desserts. Its powerful aromas of rose petal, lychee and fresh mango herald a rich, complex palate that goes on and on!

This expressive wine seduces with notes of yellow fruit and acacia. On the palate, the ripeness of the fruit is evident, with a fine balance between acidity and roundness. A great Trimbach classic!
