Exclusivity in its purest form. The flagship of all Gewürztraminers found anywhere is in Alsace. Remarkable and exciting. Sip 1: you'll feel like you're in the most beautiful vineyards of Alsace. Sip 2: you can picture yourself walking down the street of Ribeauville, where the Trimbach wine cellars are located. Sip 3 and you're done. This is delicate, opulent, and a pleasure to drink. The purity is ultimate. The aroma is sensational, strongly aromatic, almost perfumed. Blossoms in bloom greet your nose. But the delicate herbaceous note is also more than pleasant. The finish seems to linger for minutes. This white wine from Trimbach has proven itself to be a superb wine on all fronts. We can only recommend one thing: open that bottle, and before you know it, you'll be imagining yourself strolling through the Trimbach vineyards.

Very old vines for Gewurztraminer Cuvée des Seigneurs de Ribeaupierre

The soil at the Trimbach vineyards in the town of Ribeauville is very stony limestone on a sandstone base, at 250 to 350 meters above sea level. The well-drained argilo-calcium soil on a deep sandstone base supports vines with an average age of 40 years. The grapes are hand-picked as late as possible to achieve maximum ripeness, which in turn produces optimal flavor depth and complexity after gentle pressing in a pneumatic press. The juice flows into the cellar by gravity and clears naturally before fermentation. The juice ferments for 2 to 3 weeks in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. This cuvée is vinified almost completely dry; its beautiful balance results from highly concentrated fruit, thanks to a very low yield.
