✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted to celebrate nearly four centuries of winemaking excellence since Maison Trimbach's founding in 1626, the Riesling Cuvée Frédéric Emile '375ème Anniversaire' represents a monumental milestone in Alsatian viticulture. Named in honor of Frédéric Emile Trimbach, who famously secured international acclaim for the estate at the 1898 Brussels International Exposition, this legendary cuvée is sourced exclusively from the prestigious Grand Crus of Geisberg and Osterberg, which tower directly behind the Trimbach estate in Ribeauvillé. The marl-limestone-sandstone soils of these steep, south-and-southeast-facing slopes impart an intense, chiseled minerality and structural power. In keeping with the strict Trimbach signature, the wine is fermented entirely dry without malolactic fermentation, preserving the pristine, laser-like acidity and pure, crystalline stone fruit and petrol character that defines world-class dry Riesling.
