Trimbach Cuvee Frederic Emile Vendange Tardive 1990
A rivetting example of Alsace VT Riesling - quite an austere example compared to the Zind-Humbrecht “Clos Jesbal” Pinot Gris 1990 reviewed below - but no less rivetting. Perfectly balanced from start to finish with an incredible array of almost dry extract showing complex waxy apple curd, minerals, spicy botrytis notes and an eerie petroluem overlay. Superb mouthfeel, gorgeous integrated acid cut and a wonderful departure. 95 points on its’ ear.
