The producer
Who are they?
The Trimbach family’s winemaking history goes back to 1626. Established in Ribeauvillé since 1920, the house is now in its thirteenth generation. Its identity rests on dry, precise Alsace wines crafted for the table, with Riesling as the main thread. The geological diversity around Ribeauvillé allows Trimbach to work with a true mosaic of terroirs, vinified with the aim of preserving their purity and personality. From classic cuvées to great wines of place like the legendary Clos Sainte Hune, the house defends a recognisable style: upright, mineral, balanced and capable of very long ageing.
Their approach
What sets them apart.
Precision above all
Trimbach seeks dry, upright and balanced wines in which freshness and minerality remain paramount.
A mosaic of terroirs
Limestone, marl, sandstone and granitic rock make up the soils around Ribeauvillé. The plots are tended to bring out the nuances specific to each site.
Riesling as a signature
Riesling accounts for about half of production and particularly embodies the dry, pure, mineral style sought by the house.

Le Premier Verre
Why we follow them.
Because Trimbach is one of the best estates to understand what a great dry white from Alsace can be. The classic Riesling is approachable and immediately readable, while the top cuvées show how far minerality, precision and ageing potential can go.
