The wine-growing history of Maison Trimbach dates back to 1626.
Since then, twelve generations of winemakers have tirelessly drawn on their passion for Alsace wines, ensuring the wines they produce stand out for their quality and authenticity, patiently establishing, from father to son, a solid reputation for excellence.
The “Réserve” quality is the result of a rigorous selection of fully-ripe grapes from the Ribeauvillé region. It defines a structured, balanced wine, which is both fruity and subtle.
Pinot Gris is one of the most remarkable of Alsace grape varieties which combines a full-bodied, heady but dry fruitiness. Its generous personality and its hint of smokiness make it the perfect accompaniment for a wide variety of gastronomic dishes.
Pair with: terrines, fish in sauce, smoked or raw, white meats, veal sweetbreads, mushrooms, well-seasoned and aromatic dishes, Asian cuisine…
Bright golden-tinged straw. Apple and pear on the lovely, floral, perfumed nose. Enters sweet, then austere and a little straightforward in the middle, featuring simple orchard fruit flavors on the medium-long finish.
From purchased grapes from the Haut-Rhin department, the 2015 Pinot Gris Réserve displays perfectly ripe and concentrated mango fruit with smoky flavors. On the palate, this is a rich and fruity, very fine and elegant Pinot in the dry style. The 2015 was bottled with 14% alcohol and seven grams of residual sugar. It is an excellent Pinot Gris that can stand even the Geisberg Grand Cru due to its richness, sweetness and structure. It is not as complex but, well, pretty sexy.
Drink 2019-2025.
