Trimbach Riesling Frédéric Emile 2018
Selected with intention
The 2018 Trimbach Riesling Frédéric Emile is a testament to the Alsatian powerhouse's mastery of Riesling, particularly from its prime Grand Cru vineyards. This dry, terroir-driven wine is celebrated for its incredible longevity and piercing minerality. The 2018 vintage, characterized by a warmer growing season, lends a touch more generosity while maintaining the hallmark acidity and precision. Expect a complex nose of lime zest, green apple, wet stone, and subtle hints of petrol and white flowers. On the palate, it is remarkably linear and taut, with a vibrant acidity that carries concentrated flavours of citrus, saline minerality, and a long, profoundly dry finish. A wine of immense structure and purity, destined for decades of graceful evolution.
