The Trimbach family is in their 13th generation of winemaking in Alsace and has been releasing Clos Ste. Hune Riesling for over a century. With limestone soils and low-yielding vines that average 60 years old, Clos St. Hune is ideal for growing high-quality riesling. The warm, dry, sunny days in Alsace allow this sometimes finicky grape to fully ripen, creating wines with depth and concentration without losing the unique riesling character. The 2017 Trimbach Clos Ste. Hune Riesling is a masterpiece of juxtaposition: chiseled, dry, and featuring bracing acidity, the wine is also lushly concentrated and brimming with notes of juicy white peach. The signature mineral finish rounds out the wine. The 2017 vintage earned 96 points from Vinous, with critic Ian D'Agata writing, “The penetrating, long, very suave finish offers complex, concentrated flavors similar to the aromas...A readier-to-drink CSH than usual, but it will age well.” The Final Sip: Trimbach only produces around 1,500 cases of Clos Ste. Hune Riesling each vintage, making this already collectible wine even rarer. Score a few bottles (or more) during pre-arrival and stash them for at least a decade to experience all that this wine can truly offer.

Wine Enthusiast
Juicy, fresh white peach on the nose of this wine is framed by lemon. Zesty headiness presses pleasure buttons in the brain with ethereal lift. The palate echoes that zesty, juicy lemon theme, teetering between tart freshness and aromatic abundance. Bone dry, incisive and concentrated, the wine is gorgeous. Wait for it to unfold. Drink 2025–2045.
