Persoonlijke gegevens
De Trimbach Clos Sainte Hune, afkomstig van een klein perceel van 1,67 hectare in de Rosacker Grand Cru (Elzas/Alsace), dat al meer dan 200 jaar in familiebezit is, zal blijven wat het is: een merkwijn en behoort tot de beste droge Rieslings ter wereld.
De 2018 Riesling Clos Sainte Hune begint erg puur en veeleisend op de neus en toont in alles al gelijk zijn geweldige bewaar-potentieel. Fris, aristocratisch en ijzerrijk wat deze wijn zo typeert. In de mond kun je net zoveel energie en spanning vinden als in een elektriciteitscentrale. De wijn is heel helder, fris en puur, ziltig maar dan met een zeer elegante en verleidelijke smaak. De afdronk is erg lang en complex en duidt op een geweldig verouderingspotentieel.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | De 2018 Trimbach Riesling Clos Sainte Hune toont een heldere, frisse en zeer minerale smaak met uitgesproken zuurgraad, ziltige en ijzerachtige tonen en een lange, elegante afdronk die zijn grote bewaarpotentieel verraadt. Dankzij die strakke frisheid en fijne mineraliteit snijdt de wijn door vet en accentueert delicate umami- en zee-smaken, waardoor hij perfect samengaat met witte vis, sushi en schelpdieren; probeer hem bij sashimi of ceviche voor een verfrissend contrast, bij gestoomde of gegrilde zeevruchten met een scheut citroen, of bij licht gebakken coquilles om de subtiele zoetheid van de schaaldieren te benadrukken. |

As readers know Trimbach's iconic Clos Sainte Hune comes from a 1.67 hectare plot on the Grand Cru Rosacker but is sold as Clos Ste Hune since 1919. The densely planted vines are pretty old (more than 50 years on average), with the oldest planted in the 1940s and the youngest in the 1980s. Bottled, like all the prestigious wines of Trimbach in April 2014, the 2013 Riesling Clos Ste Hune shows a very clear and deep, dusty/smoky, mineral nose which impressively reflects the Muschelkalk terroir. Rich, precise and pure also on the nobly textured and highly elegant palate this expressive and full-bodied Riesling is penetrating mineral and piquant but also very juicy. The finish is extremely long and complex. Very promising and stunningly accessible already. However, this wine won't be in the market before 2019/20.
Pierre Trimbach was in a hurry when he presented me the 2013 range along with some of the 2012s, which are still in the markets. However, 90 minutes wewa enough to learn that 2013 as well as 2014 were small vintages in terms of quantity, but at least the 2013s have an extraordinary good quality; namely, the age worthy Rieslings (with the world class Clos Sainte Hune on the top and the remarkably good Geisberg Grand Cru), but also the dry Gewurztraminers, especially the Réserve and the rarely produced Cuvée des Seigneurs Ribeaupierre, are impressively good.
Pierre Trimbach calls 2012 "a classic vintage." The sugar levels were "good though not exceptional." Also, the acidity was "good -- not as high as in 2010, 2013 and 2014, but better than in 2011." Last but not least, the quantity is better than in 2010, 2013 and 2014. Some of the vines suffered from drought, but the Rieslings (which were mainly sourced in the southern part of the region) are of excellent quality and provided with a very good aging potential (which is important for a domaine that sells more than 50% Rieslings or 350,000 bottles).
For Trimbach fans, it is important to know that the family has launched the first-ever terroir named wine, the 2009 Riesling Grand Cru Geisberg. Although I did not taste the 2009, I was impressed by the quality of the 2013 and rated it even higher than the iconic Cuvée Frédéric Emile (yet not so from the 2012 vintage). The grapes from the 2.6 ha plot on the Geisberg have always been part of the famous Cuvée, which has always been (and will remain) a blend of the Osterberg and Geisberg grands crus of Ribeauvillé. But since the nuns of the Couvent de Ribeauvillé, from whom the grapes have always being bought, insisted that the quality of the grapes were worth to be used for an exclusive Geisberg Grand Cru ("otherwise..."), Trimbach had to accept and so the domaine's first declared Grand Cru was born.
Most likely there will be a second Grand Cru soon. In 2012 the Trimbach family purchased a plot in the Kientzheim Grand Cru Schlossberg. Whereas the vintages 2012 and 2013 were finally blended with the classic Trimbach Riesling, the 2014 seems good enough to become Trimbach's second Grand Cru. Pierre Trimbach: "We had to restore the vineyard first and force the roots to go deeper into the shallow granite soil, otherwise we would have big stress problems in dry vintages."
The Clos Sainte Hune, however, sourced from a 1.67 hectare small plot within the Rosacker Grand Cru that has been family-owned for more than 200 years, will remain what it is is -- a brand wine. Consumers think it is a terroir wine anyway, and even when not, they will consider it as one of the finest dry Rieslings on planet wine.
Trimbach fans should also include the domaine when it comes to detecting Alsace's potential for great Pinot Noir. Trimbach's Réserve Personelle (or Réserve Cuve 7 in France) is on a good way in any case.

Cool, aristocratic and iron-rich on the nose where some flinty notes are displayed the 2012 Riesling Clos Ste Hune starts very pure and demanding on the nose. On the palate you can find as much energy and tension as in an electric power station. The wine is very clear, fresh and pure, shows lots of salt on the very elegant and seductive palate. The finish is very long and complex and indicates a terrific aging potential.

Still youthful, but you feel the wine’s ample depth on the bold and full-bodied palate. A very structured wine with touches of bitterness and celery-root character that’s impressive, but not yet at its mature peak. Really opens up with aeration in the glass. Very long, creamy and caressing, slightly off-dry finish. Served from magnum. Drinkable now, but best from 2026.

From: Alsace: The 2015s and Late-Released 2014s (Mar 2017)
Bright golden-tinged straw-yellow. Enticing nose of yellow apple, mirabelle, crystallized ginger and white flowers, complicated by lemony minerality. Dense, fresh and juicy, displaying outstanding sugar-acid balance and an opulent mouthfeel that is nicely lifted by penetrating notes of mirabelle, lime, wet stones, lemon peel and almond. While this enters sweet, it finishes very clean and dry. Boasts one of the most fragrant, prettiest and most forward noses I recall in a young CSH.
- By Ian D'Agata on August 2016
Jean Trimbach was but one of many Alsace _vignerons who commented that 2015 was an outlier year, with “…essentially no water falling from the skies from the end of May to August 15; and I repeat, not one drop”. His brother Pierre added that “… the very small berries and thick skins explain a lot about the taste of wines from this vintage”. If all that sounds a little ominous, the good news for wine lovers (and collectors) is that Pierre also believes that the 2015 wines will prove similar to those of 1971, which is not just one of Alsace’s all-time greatest vintages, but, for what it’s worth, but also my favorite all time modern Alsace vintage (along with 1967), so I’d say that’s good news indeed.
This storied estate now owns 52 hectares (128 acres) of vines as they recently bought two hectares in the heart of the Brand Grand Cru, which is widely considered the best part. You might think that Trimbach is going “cru-crazy” (the estate also bottles a wine labeled Geisberg, while their cuvée M will soon be renamed with the Mandelberg Grand Cru name, which is what the “M” stands for), since Jean and Pierre Trimbach were once among the most opposed to the Grand Cru system. During my visit, the usual Trimbach stars (Clos and the Fréderic Emile) shone brightly, but I found the entry-level wines (Muscat, Sylvaner, Pinot Blanc) to be also especially noteworthy.
