From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

The perfect wine doesn't exist? Well, after one sip of this wine, you'll definitely think differently. The wine is only produced in years when the Pinot Gris is of TOP quality. These vineyards are formally Grand Cru vineyards, but because the Trimbach family finds the formal quality standards insufficiently strict, they retain their own Grand Cru designations, just to emphasize how much they value quality.

Trimbach is a winery founded in 1626 and located in the medieval town of Ribeauvillé. The Trimbach family, which has been at the helm for 13 generations, currently owns over 15,000 hectares of vineyards, 1,600 of which are classified as Grand Cru. They produce fruity yet structured, elegant, balanced, and long-lived wines. The Trimbach Pinot Gris Réserve Personnelle vineyard boasts rich clay and mineral soils with significant limestone deposits. Harvesting is carried out manually to ensure the grapes are handled with the utmost care and arrive at the winery undamaged. In the winery, the Trimbach Pinot Gris Réserve Personnelle vintage is gently pressed, and the must is cold-racked using gravity to remove and clarify any impurities or sediments. It then ferments at around 20 degrees Celsius to preserve and extract the varietal's fresh, fruity aromas. It is then bottled without malolactic fermentation, preserving the grapes' natural fresh acidity and fruity character, as well as their full aging potential.

Open a bottle and savor the result. The aroma is explosive and unprecedented: abundant ripe tropical fruit and stone fruit. The taste is at least as ripe as the aroma. You'll taste hints of nectarine, ripe pineapple, and a faint hint of melon. The finish lingers on, what a feast! This wine is also exceptionally well-suited for gastronomy. Try this wine with spicy cooked mussels, and the feast is complete.
