This historic vineyard in Ribeauvillé grows on marl-limestone soils, where the Trimbachs farm gewurztraminer on 50-year-old vines. The limestone soils seem to direct the structure of this wine, keeping it tight and formal. The fruit itself is markedly fresh, with a cool pink-grapefruit buzz of flavor and fine tannins that lengthen the zesty spice. Juicy and brisk, this has years of development ahead.
