Note di degustazione
A blend of two grand cru sites – Geisberg and Osterberg – produced by Trimbach since the 1960s. The soils here – clay and limestone over sandstone – are described as ‘not only stony, they are strongly alkaline, producing a wine of intense minerality and powerful acidity ’. Very cold August in 2008. TA 9.06 g/l, RS 1 g/l, pH 3.09. Light nose needs coaxing out of the glass. Absolutely bone dry and SO youthful! Tension and too austere to charm at present. You have to take this on trust for the moment. (JR)

The 2008 Riesling Cuvée Frédéric Emile is now in the market and readers shouldn't miss seeking it out. This is a gorgeously matured dry Riesling classic from Ribeauvillé that drinks perfectly today and pairs with many kind of dishes. The wine has an intense citrus color and opens with a very clear, deep, dense and aromatic bouquet of dried fruits along with herbal and mineral aromas. Full-bodied, pure and elegant, yet complex and mineral on the palate, this is a silky textured but well-structured dry Riesling with intense and persistent fruit, fine tannins and lingering salinity. Bottled April 2009, this is a great dry Riesling blend from the Grands Crus Geisberg and Osterberg.
Will be launched in September 2016. Real nerve and dryness. Lots buried in there. Classic dry Riesling. Lots of reverberation. So different from 2009! (JR)
