PALM BAY INTERNATIONAL Gewurztraminer Seigneurs de Ribeaupierre 2016 BACKGROUND Since 1626, the Trimbach family have been a reference point for fine Alsace wine. They are also one of the largest owners of Grand Cru vineyards in the region which account for an impressive third of their total production. At every level, their wines embody the celebrated Trimbach style: structured, long-lived, fruit-driven, dry, elegant, and above all balanced. Family is also central to everyday life at Trimbach. Winemaking is expertly managed by 12th-generation Pierre, alongside his nephew Julien. Pierre's brother, Jean, and Pierre's daughter Anne, the eldest of the 13th generation, are global brand ambassadors. In 2023, Trimbach was certified HVE-3 Organic reflecting their dedication to creating the highest-caliber expressions of their terroir. TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTES The vines come from several selected vineyards: Old vines (50+ years) from the region of RibeauviIle locality Trotacker which has deep clay-limestone soil; In Bergheim a site called Grunspeil on from the Keuper marls; In Hunawihr, a site called Muehlforst marl-calcaire soils on a shelly limestone substrate of Muschelkalk with a southern and South East exposure. The 2016 vintage had a mild winter, as well as abundant rains that replenished the water reserve. Hot and sunny summers with a peak in temperature at the end of August allowed for good maturity. Good, sunny weather during the harvest, along with fairly cool but sunny autumn provided for a strong vintage. WINEMAKING & AGING Grapes are selected when fully ripe, delicately pressed in a pneumatic press. Vinified in stainless steel tanks, no malolactic fermentation or long aging on lees in order to preserve freshness, liveliness and fruity aromas. Bottled the on the following spring followed by 6 years aging in the cellar. TASTING NOTES Bouquet of superb complexity with citrus, flowers, and gingerbread aromas. Its bouquet has a rare elegance combining power and fineness. The length is supported by a delicate acidity which confirms its dry and gastronomic character.
