Dessert and sweet wines explained: late harvest, noble rot and icewineSauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Grigio: choosing a crisp whiteThis is absolutely classic dry Riesling with tangy lime pith and aromatic beeswax character. Fine balance and texture on the palate, with typical Trimbach understated elegance. Still youthful and fresh, it is just starting to show hints of matured complexity. Delicious now, it will continue to evolve beautifully for at least another 4-5 years. According to Jancis Robinson MW, Trimbach makes “the finest dry Riesling in the world.”

Common questions
Why does old Riesling smell of petrol?
With age, a natural compound in Riesling can develop an aroma often described as petrol or kerosene. It is a recognised feature of mature Riesling, not a fault.
Is Riesling sweet?
Not always. Many Rieslings are dry, especially from Alsace, Australia and German wines labelled trocken. Others are off dry or sweet, so check the label and ABV.
