Trimbach Gewurztraminer Vendanges Tardives 2017
From Maison Trimbach in Ribeauvillé, Alsace, the Gewurztraminer Vendanges Tardives 2017 is a refined dessert wine made from 100% Gewurztraminer. Sourced from organic Grand Cru Osterberg and old vines in Muelforst, Hunawihr, on marno-calcaire soils, it’s hand-harvested with botrytis and passerillage, offering a luminous yellow-gold hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A luxurious, sweet dessert wine with rich fruit and floral finesse, showcasing Alsace’s terroir.
The nose reveals peach nectar, lychee, and crystallized pineapple, with hints of rose petals, honey, and ginger. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and silky-sweet, with vibrant acidity, a dense texture, and flavors of apricot, spice, and a long, suave finish.
Food Pairings
Pair this dessert wine with Western dishes like apricot tart or blue cheese to highlight its sweet richness. For Chinese cuisine, try 芒果布丁, 芝麻糊, 糖不甩, 桂花糕, 椰汁糕, or 糯米糍 to complement its honeyed fruit and spice. Ideal for post-dinner sipping or festive occasions.
Serving and Cellaring
Serve chilled at 10°C in a dessert wine glass to enhance aromas. Enjoy now or cellar until 2037 for added complexity. Explore our Alsace collection for more Gewurztraminer classics.
