ABOUT THIS WINE
The Trimbach Riesling Grand Cru Geisberg 2018 is a 100% Riesling from the Geisberg Grand Cru vineyard in Alsace, France. Produced by Maison Trimbach, a family winery with a history dating back to 1626, this wine reflects the producer's dedication to balance and elegance. The Geisberg vineyard is characterized by its steep, south-facing slopes and limestone and sandstone subsoils. The 2018 vintage was influenced by a warm and dry summer, contributing to the wine's concentrated profile. Trimbach has been committed to organic viticulture since 2008 and achieved HVE-3 Organic certification in 2023.
