Profile

The Trimbach Réserve Riesling 2022 delivers a masterful blend of Alsace tradition and finesse, sourced entirely from estate vineyards in Ribeauvillé and Bergheim, many of which sit on limestone-rich soils including parcels within the Altenberg de Bergheim Grand Cru. Produced from organically grown grapes and vinified with minimal oak intervention, the wine unfolds with remarkable purity and elegance.

On the nose, expect a refined interplay of citrus and stone fruit—lemon zest, white peach, and a herbal tinge—complemented by delicate floral accents and a stony mineral overlay reminiscent of wet stone or chalk dust. The palate is crisp and energetic, with taut acidity framing flavors of lime, green apple, tarragon, and chalky minerality. Despite coming from a warmer Alsace vintage, the wine retains an invigorating freshness and balance throughout its long, focused finish.

Critics have been enthusiastic: James Suckling awarded it 94/100, calling it “a masterclass in tension and precision,” noting its captivating mix of stone fruit concentration, citrus brightness, and lingering chalky grip. Likewise, Natalie MacLean rated it 94/100, praising it as “bursting with vibrant juiciness and a lively lemon character… remarkable depth of minerality” that pairs beautifully with seafood or fresh salads

Critic awards

"This Alsatian Riesling is bursting with vibrant juiciness and a lively lemon character that perfectly complements seafood or fresh salads. With no oak influence, it showcases a remarkable depth of minerality, with hints of flinty wet stone, reminiscent of a spring rain. The wine strikes a beautiful balance between its powerful fruit and a refreshing, citrusy freshness that lingers on the palate. It’s incredibly food-friendly, making it a delightful companion to grilled shrimp or a goat cheese salad. Riesling food pairings: lemon-herbed chicken, nuts, soft cheese, curries, spicy food."

"Already on the nose this has a terrific interplay of stone fruit and herbal freshness with a tantalizing touch of spices. You feel the power and concentration of Alsace dry riesling from a warm, dry vintage, but also a wonderful citrusy freshness. A delicate chalky minerality echoes through the very long finish. 100% from estate vineyards in Ribeauville and Bergheim. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Riesling Réserve is from top vineyards in Ribeauvillé and Bergheim that haven't been sourced for the grands crus but are partly seriously old. Bottled in April 2023 and already released, the wine displays a clear and refined, intense and elegant bouquet of fully ripe and spicy fruits but also remarkably floral talents. The wine is lush and intense on the refined and elegant palate, provided with some Muscat-like aromas, ripe, saline acidity and very fine tannins. The finish is harmonious, fruit-intense and backed up by a serious mineral structure. Superb. 13% stated alcohol."
