✨ Technical Specifications
Maison Trimbach's Pinot Gris Réserve is a benchmark expression of Alsatian Pinot Gris, showcasing the family's signature dry, structured, and intensely mineral style. Sourced from mature vines in the limestone-dominant soils around Ribeauvillé, this wine benefits from the unique microclimate of the Vosges Mountains' rain shadow. Unlike many Alsatian producers who leave significant residual sugar, Trimbach vinifies this Pinot Gris dry, avoiding malolactic fermentation to preserve the grape's natural, vibrant acidity and pristine fruit character. Historically, Pinot Gris in Alsace was referred to as 'Tokay d'Alsace'—a legendary moniker dating back to the 16th century when vines were reputedly brought from Hungary by Baron Schwendi. Today, Trimbach's Réserve bottling honors this rich heritage, offering a beautifully textured, smoky, and complex white wine that balances rich stone fruit with a precise, clean finish.
