2013 Trimbach Riesling Clos Ste. Hune

Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, December 27, 2023 - Opened at Petrus in HK. Chilled, decanted and enjoyed over dinner.

This was a bit more advanced than I thought it would be, quite oxidative in style and the colour was quite deep and golden. it took a bit of air to open up, and I'm glad we decanted it, and slowly began revealing notes of white flowers and honey and pears. However, there wasn't as much energy, tension and precision through the acidity that I was hoping for. Perhaps just not the style of dry Riesling that I prefer, despite the pedigree.

Not enough experience with CsH to provide insight on aging potential. Honestly would stick with Keller GGs if given the choice - I genuinely think the winemaking's just better and certainly more my style.
