Riesling Grossi Laue  |
$69 |

| VM 96 (4/2024): The 2014 Riesling Grossi Laüe is harvested from four parcels across the midslope of the marls of the Schoenenbourg Grand Cru. From a cool vintage, with a cool, rainy summer where the autumn made the vintage. This sends out only gentle notions of chamomile tincture with emerging highlights of clear honey but with an ethereal lift and a lovely smokiness that allows you to stash this way. The palate is serene, gorgeously smooth and emollient with its cooling, soothing, chamomile-scented, fresh gentleness. This is a Riesling like a caress, like a balm, while cooling, healing and soothing. The 2014 is long and understated, just about opening up but perfectly equipped to go the distance, a wine of equanimity and class. (Bone-Dry) (Drink between 2024-2050). Anne Krebiehl. |

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. |

Riesling Cuvee Colette |

| WA 91 (10/2015): Formerly named Cuvée Catherine, the 2014 Riesling Cuvée Colette is a tribute to Cathérine's mother Colette, who lead Domaine Weinbach to one of the most prestigious white wine producers in France. Aged 87, Colette Faller died earlier this year just nine months after her younger daughter Laurence. The wine is sourced from old vines on the sandy bottom of the Schlossberg Grand Cru and was bottled June 2015. There are clear and lemon-fresh fruit aromas on the quite intense and concentrated nose, which displays a flavor of candied lemons. Highly elegant on the palate, the wine starts round, intense and almost rich, but is also stunningly precise. The finish, however, is straight and very mineral, and reveals a stunning purity and a salty aftertaste with some floral and herbal aromas. This is a complex and age-worthy wine on 1er Cru level with a minerality that is never austere. |
