Riesling « Cuvée Frédéric Emile »

This famous Riesling comes from the choicest slopes of Ribeauvillé overlooking the Trimbach winery which are Geisberg and Osterberg. The sun exposure is south and southeast. The vine's high average age of some 40 years ensures low yields and concentrated fruit. The eldest vines are about 50 years old and more.

Its clay-limestone soil contains a high proportion of fossil-flecked muschelkalk, which brings out all the best out of the Riesling.

Cuvée Frédéric Emile is exclusively made from very ripe grapes, selectively picked  at the end of the harvest. Dry and firmly-structured, but very fruity, this multi-faceted wine owes its great depth of flavour to the combination of Riesling grapes with ideal soil. After a few years in bottle it reveals a fascinating mineral nuance.

This long-living Riesling bears the name of our great ancestors, Frédéric Emile Trimbach. It is prized for its breed and choiceness.
