Trimbach Riesling Frederic Emile

If this isn't a king's wine, we don't know what is. The king of Alsace grapes, the Riesling, planted in one of the Trimbach family's finest Grand Cru vineyards. The marriage of these two factors was bottled, and the Riesling Cuvée Frédéric Emile was born. Perfect and generous, elegant and pure. Just a few key words that perfectly describe this white wine from Trimbach.

The harvest of the Trimbach Riesling Cuvee Frederic Emile

The grapes are selected as late as possible from the two major crus of Geisberg and Osterberg to achieve maximum ripeness, which in turn yields optimal depth of flavor and complexity. The grapes are pressed very gently in a pneumatic press. The juice ferments for 3 to 4 weeks in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine is not oak-aged and is vinified to a completely dry state without any residual sugar. Bottling is done early to preserve freshness, and the wine remains in the cellar for several years in bottle before reaching the market, making it both ready to drink upon release and suitable for aging for 10 years or more.
