About This Wine
If there was one winery to be given expert status in Alsatian riesling, it would be Trimbach. Maison Trimbach has been making wines in Alsace for thirteen generations (since 1626), and the Clos Ste. Hune Riesling label since 1919. Clos Ste. Hune is a small plot of riesling vines within the larger Rosacker Grand Cru. The average age of the vines is 60 years, creating wines with great depth and concentration. The 2016 Trimbach Clos Ste. Hune Riesling is an expression of purity. Crafted from 100 riesling, the grapes are sourced from low-yielding vines and the wines are unoaked, allowing the characteristics of the grapes and terroir to shine. A strong mineral backbone supports this refreshingly dry wine. Acidity dances along the palate and is complemented by dense stone fruit and floral notes. Wines are bottle aged a minimum of six years before release, allowing more layers of complexity to develop. James Suckling summed it up perfectly with his 98-point review: “It goes on for days. Glorious!” The Final Sip: Currently only available as a pre-release, the 2016 Trimbach Clos Ste. Hune Riesling is the perfect example of an ageable white. This is a wine to leave in the cellar for decades – it will only improve and appreciate in value for years to come.
