The Trimbach Gewurztraminer 2013 from Alsace is a striking example of this aromatic varietal. It presents a pale golden color and offers a complex bouquet of lychee, rose petal, and orange blossom.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and fruit-forward, with flavors of peach, melon, and a hint of mandarin oil.
The wine is dry with a rich, creamy texture and a spicy, savory finish. Its phenolic structure adds depth and balance, making it a well-rounded and elegant wine
The Trimbach Gewurztraminer 2013 is produced with meticulous care in Alsace. The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and gently pressed using pneumatic presses.
Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel and concrete vats to maintain the wine’s natural acidity and preserve its fresh, fruity aromas. Notably, there is no malolactic fermentation, which helps retain the wine’s crispness and liveliness. After fermentation, the wine is bottled in the spring following the harvest and then aged for a minimum of two years in the cellar to develop its complexity and depth
Maison Trimbach’s viticultural origins date back to 1626, and since then, twelve generations of rigorous winemakers and Ambassadors devoted to the passion for Alsace wines have constantly distinguished themselves by the quality and authenticity of their wines, to patiently develop, from father to son, a solid reputation. The 13th generation joined the estate a few years ago.
Alsace vineyards ? An exceptional region !
Our climate is semi-continental: cold winters, hot and dry summers, sometimes stormy, and beautiful and dry autumns. The sunshine is optimal and the rainfall is very low because it is protected from oceanic influences by the Vosges mountains (in 2020 : Colmar 424 mm of water against 758 mm in Lorraine and 778 mm in France).
The vines planted on the sub-Vosges hills, on the slopes, have an essential impact on the quality of the grapes: drainage, less fertile soils, better exposure to the sun and ideal orientations : South, South-East, South-West. All of these conditions thus contribute to the constitution of the inimitable characteristics of Alsace wines.

The Country
French wine, steeped in history and tradition, offers a rich tapestry of flavors and styles. Bordeaux’s iconic red blends—Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot—create wines with structured tannins and notes of blackcurrant, plum, and cedar. Burgundy’s Pinot Noir and Chardonnay yield velvety reds and crisp whites. Champagne sparkles with toasty brioche and citrus. The Rhône Valley boasts bold Syrah, while Alsace’s Riesling and Gewürztraminer express floral aromas. From Provence’s pale rosés to Corsica’s sun-kissed Vermentino, each bottle tells a story. Santé!
