Trimbach
Réserve Alsace Pinot Noir
2018 vintage. Very dark-fruited and Burgundian. Firm, yet fine-grained tannins. Black plum skin, cranberry, black tea, tangerine peel, rose petal, tree bark, autumn leaves, fresh blackberry. Really quite good at the proper temperature. I had it over-chilled initially and found it rather thin. Comparable to a village or 1er Cru level Nuits-Saint-Georges or the like.

Oct 22nd, 2022Lean and ripping acidity. Less oily than anticipated from Trimbach. Petrol aromas abound with ripe fruit hiding behind it.

Dec 7th, 2020Very interesting wine. Very dry and linear. A little dark fruit poking through. Medium body with nice acidity.

Nov 12th, 2018Thought this was pretty smart. Aromatic with a touch of root vegetables, cherry, raspberry, strawberry, orange peel, damp roses and Chinese five spice. Brisk acidity and fine chalky tannins giving some grip.
