Trimbach Gewurztraminer 2020

The aromatic expression of this grape variety dominates, the very definition of theGewurztraminer from Alsace, well-anchored in the dry and balanced-style of theTrimbach family. Its very elegant bouquet, its crunchiness and its notes of roses,lychee, and citrus fruit lead to a lively and fresh finish

Plenty of spice (mostly allspice and cinnamon) on the nose, but what makes this stand out in the field of regular quality Alsace gewurztraminers is the excellent balance, with lively acidity and a hint of tannin that underlines this at the clean finish. Unusually food-friendly for this grape.

The 2020 Gewurztraminer opens clear, bright and fresh on the nose that is still dominated by rather spicy phenolics at this early stage. Round, lush and elegant on the palate, this is a refined, tense and salty/mineral wine with a serious and stimulating structure.

Racy and energetic thanks to a steely beam of acidity that cuts through the creamy density and ripe fruit. Offers bitter dried herb and flower notes, while warm spice elements chime in. The stony depth and firmness bring a chalky feel to the finish, which stretches out nicely. Drink now through 2029.
