Riesling Cru Mandelberg 2021 Trimbach

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (94)

From a warm, early-ripening 1.6-hectare plot on marl limestone and pebbly soils that have been cultivated since 1996 by Trimbach, the 2021 Riesling Grand Cru Mandelberg offers a generously rich but also refined and smoky limestone bouquet with notes of ripe lemons and pineapples. On the palate, this is a generously rich yet elegant and savory, persistently saline Riesling with a long, intense and aromatic but also stimulating mineral and saline finish. Coming from a very warm site, this is a rather textural yet still elegant Riesling with 14.11% alcohol and seven grams of residual sugar backed up by 7.96 grams of rather smooth tartaric acidity.

Sleek and racy, but with excellent polish for this high-acidity vintage, this stunning dry riesling has a wonderful interplay of creaminess with candied-lemon and herbal freshness on the medium-bodied palate. Still quite tightly wound at the bold and crisp finish.

On limestone.
Water white. Heady nose with real lift. Some of the breadth of tropical flowers – lilies? – on the palate with a hint of blossom. Real palate impact and less obvious acidity than the Brand 2021 … until the very end. Still high in acidity. (JR)
