Trimbach Réserve Riesling 2022

This wine has intense, savory petrol aromas that are pleasantly gritty and backed by a subtle hint of talc. It’s quite savory and acidic on the palate, a mix of slate, fresh chives and lemon juice that’s delicious. The long finish is reminiscent of sour apple. Serve this with a cheeseboard as both accent and palate cleanser.

Super-ripe lemon, fresh pineapple and herb aromas pour from the glass of this medium-bodied, concentrated and sophisticated dry riesling. Completely dry, with excellent balance at the long, very clean finish. 100% estate fruit from Ribeauvillé and Bergheim.

The 2022 Riesling Reserve is mostly picked on limestone soils, including the Altenberg de Bergheim Grand Cru. A lovely stoniness defines the nose, with a serene chamomile and bright lemon lift. The palate adds rounded, generous, juicy Mirabelle fruit to this, edged with an ethereal herb savor, sinking into that deep, cool depth of the limestone. The 2022 is stony, bright, juicy, lip-smacking and taut. This is very Trimbach. (Bone-Dry)
