✨ Technical Specifications
Maison Trimbach's relationship with the Alsace Grand Cru system is legendary. For decades, the family resisted putting 'Grand Cru' on their labels, fearing the expanded boundaries of the 1975 classification compromised quality standards, choosing instead to let the prestige of legendary sites speak for themselves. However, in recent years, Trimbach has proudly embraced the designation for exceptional single-vineyard plots like the granite-rich Schlossberg and the limestone-heavy Geisberg. These Grand Cru Rieslings represent the absolute pinnacle of the Trimbach style: bone-dry, intensely mineral, and structurally monumental. Vinified without malolactic fermentation to preserve the pristine, laser-like acidity of the Riesling grape, these wines are aged in neutral wood and stainless steel, capturing the pure, crystalline essence of Alsace's finest terroirs.
