Trimbach Clos St. Hune 2016 is one of Alsace’s most legendary Rieslings, sourced from a tiny, historic monopole vineyard in Rosacker and released only in exceptional vintages. With its combination of precision, intensity, and remarkable restraint, it stands as a benchmark wine for dry Riesling and a true collector’s bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClos St. Hune 2016 shows a brilliant, pale gold color with impressive clarity. The nose is refined and deeply layered, opening with citrus blossom, lime zest, white peach, wet stone, and subtle herbal and smoky notes that gradually unfold in the glass.\n\nOn the palate, it is taut, linear, and vividly mineral, with precise citrus fruit, great concentration, and a striking saline edge. The wine is built for the long haul and should gain even more complexity with age, easily developing over decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClos St. Hune comes from a very small parcel in the Rosacker Grand Cru area of Alsace, where limestone-rich soils lend the wine its unmistakable mineral drive and tension. The vineyard is farmed with meticulous care, and the grapes are harvested by hand to ensure only the best fruit is selected. Vinification follows a restrained approach that preserves purity, structure, and the distinctive character of the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine is superb with refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, turbot, roast chicken with herbs, or classic Alsatian specialties like choucroute garnie. Serve it well chilled, ideally around 10-12°C, and consider decanting young bottles briefly to allow the aromatics to open; older vintages are best poured carefully and enjoyed with minimal aeration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eF. E. Trimbach is one of Alsace’s most respected family producers, founded in 1626 and internationally admired for its dry, structured style of Riesling. Clos St. Hune is one of the estate’s most famous cuvées and has earned a near-mythic reputation among collectors and critics alike. The 2016 vintage’s 95-point Wine Spectator score underlines its pedigree and the producer’s enduring excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"F. E.
