Wine Review: This pale gold colored dry-styled Riesling is made by Trimbach in Alsace, France. It opens with a Vaseline and Anjou pear bouquet with hints of faint chamomile tea with lemon. On the palate, this wine is light bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, smooth, seamless, and mouthwatering. The flavor profile is chamomile tea and flinty minerality blend with notes of rosemary and lemon verbena. I also detected hints of celery and Anjou pear in the aftertaste. The finish is dry and its flavors and acidity drift away nicely. I would pair this Riesling with pan-fried walleye. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This is the very definition of the Alsace Riesling, well anchored in the dry and balanced Trimbach style. It has aromas of lemon, pear, tropical fruit with candied orange. It shines with its elegant liveliness, crunchiness and notes of white flowers and citrus fruits leading to a minerally finish.
