Trimbach Gewurztraminer Vendage Tardive Doce

Description

This Gewürztraminer from Trimbach’s Grand Cru Osterberg is a testament to the virtue of patience. Grown on vines that practically whisper tales of centuries in Hunawihr, this wine yields a mere 25 hectolitres per hectare – a remarkably restrained output that undoubtedly concentrates the aromas. The clay and limestone soils, perfectly suited to the grape, combined with a fermentation that avoids the traditional malolactic process, deliver a vibrant expression of fruit. Expect a wine with exceptional ageing potential, beautifully suited to pairing with lamb or spiced dishes – a pleasure now, and a truly remarkable one twenty years from now.
