VM 93+ (2/2016): Vivid straw-green. Penetrating mineral and lemon notes complement green apple and jasmine on the nose. Fresh and clean on the palate, offering pure flavors of wet stone and orchard fruits. The finish is long and crystalline. This wine is a first for Trimbach, as the estate had never produced a wine from the Schlossberg. Moreover, Trimbach was long opposed to labeling wines with grand cru names, only relenting in recent years. This Riesling is made from an especially high-quality two-hectare plot (of which only 1.6 is planted) situated in the heart of the Schlossberg grand cru, just above the castle. Trimbach bought the vineyard in 2012 but did not bottle a 2012 or 2013. (Drink between 2020-2034). Ian D'Agata.
WA 91 (6/2017): The 2014 Grand Cru Schlossberg Riesling (the first vintage the Trimbachs have produces in this cru) opens with a clear, dense, complex and lemony-flavored, finessed and pure nose of great delicacy. Very pure, but intense and mineral, this is a concentrated and stony, mineral Riesling, full of finesse, salt and tension. Complex, fresh and promising, with good tannin grip. Pretty closed and austere at the moment. |
