(Wine Advocate Score 94) Made from old vines cultivated on predominantly Keuper marl-limestone soils and only produced in the best years, the yellow-golden colored 2015 Gewurztraminer Cuvée des Seigneurs Ribeaupierre opens with an intensely aromatic and dense bouquet with medium richness and complexity. On the palate, this is a very elegant, refined and rich as well as complex and sustainable Gewurz with orange flavors on the round and elegant, well balanced and structured finish. Due to its fine tannin grip and in particular the saline and vibrantly fresh salinity, the 2015 tastes less sweet than one might fear. In fact, it is a great gastronomic wine to be matched with spicy and aromatic dishes or as a dessert itself. Mango and other tropical aromas pulsate on the stimulating aftertaste. 14% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2023.

The predominately “Keuper” marl-limestone soils on which it is produced lend this rare wine a full and powerful style.

Produced from old vines from the former wine estate of the Lords of Ribeaupierre, the grapes are selected and harvested at the peak of their ripeness. It is a wine with flowery and spicy aromas and a dry personality, and yet so rich and so fruity that it almost hints at sweetness … a mere illusion.

In youth, the roundness and viscosity can mask its typical dryness as well as the underlying finesse which is the Trimbach trademark.

This Gewurztraminer is only produced in the very best vintages and it can be cellared for ageing for up to 20 years.

Pair with: foie gras, spicy and aromatic dishes, cheeses and fresh fruit-based desserts.
