Anne Krebiehl, MW

The 2023 Riesling Vieilles Vignes was made from very old vines grown in the lieu-dit of Vorderer Hagenau, plus old vines from the Muehlforst site and Grand Cru Rosacker in Hunawihr. This shimmers with a golden hue in the glass, offering tender fern and tart apple scents. The next whiff adds a juicy, bright Mirabelle aroma. The palate is absolutely clean-cut, light and translucent. This has a crystalline quality and a sleek, svelte body that pushes it forward. An inherent coolness here rings and refreshes. The 2023 is exquisite. (Bone-dry)

Yves Beck

The bouquet of the Vieilles Vignes cuvée stands out for its complexity and its ability to combine expressiveness, subtlety and freshness. Hints of linden blossom mingle with notes of pear and nectarine. On the palate, the wine is impressive both for its density and for its linear profile, which underpins freshness and indulgence. The lively acidity is well supported by a tannic framework that reinforces freshness and length. A wine with a bright future that still calls for a little patience.

The mineral expression of an emblematic Alsace terroir

The estate
Founded in 1626 by Jean Trimbach, Maison Trimbach is an institution in Alsace. Initially based in Riquewihr, the family settled in Ribeauvillé in 1920. Today, the thirteenth generation runs the estate. Julien Trimbach serves as winemaker, supported by Jean, Anne, Pauline and Frédérique. Awarded the title of Winery of the Year in 2025 by La Revue du Vin de France, the estate continues to uphold a historic expertise in crafting dry white wines.

The vineyard
The estate spans 61 hectares, complemented by grapes sourced from partner winegrowers. Located on the geological fault of Ribeauvillé in Alsace, the vines benefit from a semi-continental climate, sheltered from rainfall by the Vosges mountains. This cuvée comes specifically from vines over sixty years old, rooted in marl and limestone soils. Committed to an environmental approach for over a decade, the estate achieved HVE-3 organic certification in 2023. The vineyard is also notable for its high planting density, which favours grape concentration.

Winemaking and ageing
True to the estate's philosophy, the Riesling "Sélection de Vieilles Vignes" 2023 is crafted with the aim of revealing the purity of its terroir. The winemaking process is designed to produce a dry white wine with a structure suited to long ageing.

Grape variety
100% Riesling.
