2008 Trimbach Riesling "Reserve"
as low as $19.95 a bottle...
BACK UP THE TRUCK!

This is Riesling at its freshest, most cutting, most cooling.

Jean Trimbach says that the 2008 vintage is the best since 1990, and possibly in the last 100 years.

This, even after the insane success of 2007. He’s not alone in his praise: Considered word on the wine street is that 2008 in Alsace gets an A++.

This is the first parcel of Trimbach’s 2008 Riesling Reserve in the United Statesjust in time for summer.

Sit down with a bunch of wine fanatics and if the topic of Alsace comes up, there's always a lively discussion.

Undoubtedly, someone will bring up the great stereotypes: wines from Germany have discipline and cut; while the French are flamboyant but soft and with no real backbone. (Note: I'm just talking about wines!)

This could perhaps be an unending debate, were it not for the opulent yet restrained wines of Trimbach.

If there is one producer who marries the richness of French Riesling with the verve and rigor of its German counterpart, it is Jean Trimbach.

Today's offer, the Trimbach 2001 Riesling Cuvee Frederic Emile, is one of the best Alsatian Rieslings and an outlandish value.
