I LOVE this style of Riesling -- fragrant, lean, so crisp as to be zingy, bone dry yet with wonderfully ripe Riesling fruit. Very much in the classic Trimbach style.
Very pale bright gold. Classic Alsace Riesling nose of piercing green apple, tea, and powdered granite, it features crisp, bracing, intense flavors of fresh-crushed green apple juice poured over lemon drenched stones. Very tight now, this wine will age effortlessly for another 4 years or so. Not as full and ripe a style as a lot of Alsace producers are now trending toward, this really is a classic wine. A. I got this on sale from Zachys.com for $20.
