A Couple from Trimbach

[Bucko]

1998 Trimbach, Riesling, Alsace, France, $16. Delicate Riesling aromas and just a touch of slate tempt the senses. Very crisp on the palate, with lovely mineral flavors, tart tangerine, and a hint of petrol. 89/91.

1998 Trimbach, Gewurztraminer, Alsace, France, $16. Classic lychee, rose petal and a dash of grapefruit highlight the nose of this golden colored wine. Medium-bodied, with pretty intense lychee, honeysuckle and citrus flavors. Characteristic of the grape, you’ll find soft acids on the long finish. A Seagram Estate import. 89/90.
