Trimbach Riesling Clos Ste. Hune Alsace 2019
From Maison Trimbach in Ribeauvillé, Alsace, the Clos Ste. Hune 2019 is a refined Riesling from a 1.67-hectare plot in the Rosacker Grand Cru, Hunawihr. Sourced from 50–70-year-old vines on Muschelkalk limestone soils, it’s hand-harvested from organic vineyards and fermented in stainless steel, offering a straw-green hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A vibrant, elegant white with mineral and fruit finesse, showcasing Alsace’s terroir.
The nose reveals white peach, yellow peach, and almond, with hints of fresh herbs, crushed stone, and flint. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and bone dry, with piercing acidity, a concentrated texture, and flavors of ripe fruit, spice, and a long, saline finish.
