Trimbach Riesling Grand Cru Brand Alsace 2020
From Maison Trimbach in Ribeauvillé, Alsace, the Riesling Grand Cru Brand 2020 is a refined Riesling from a 1-hectare plot in the Brand Grand Cru, Turckheim. Sourced from 65-year-old vines on two-mica granite soils with south/south-eastern exposure, 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 citrus finesse, showcasing Alsace’s terroir.
The nose reveals freshly-sliced apple, quince blossom, and citrus, with hints of white flowers and savory minerality. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and dry, with vivid acidity, a velvety texture, and flavors of lemon zest, Mexican gherkins, and a long, saline finish.
Awards and Accolades
The 2020 Riesling Grand Cru Brand earned 90 points from Wine Enthusiast for its vibrant acidity and velvety mouthfeel in the 2020 vintage.
Food Pairings
Pair this white with Western dishes like smoked trout or Dover sole to highlight its citrus and minerality. For Chinese cuisine, try 蒸鮮蝦餃, 清蒸石斑魚, 蟹鉗, 醬爆肉丁, 椒鹽九肚魚, or 豉椒炒蜆 to complement its vibrant acidity and mineral core. Ideal for seafood feasts or elegant dinners.
Serving and Cellaring
Serve chilled at 12°C in a narrow glass to enhance aromas. Enjoy now or cellar until 2035 for added complexity. Explore our Alsace collection for more Riesling classics.
