TRIMBACH
Established in 1626 the Trimbach house is one of the eldest in the region and
is currently run by the 12th generation of the family. They have full control
over all aspects of wine making from planting to bottling resulting a severe
quality control. In terms of style, Trimbach is famous for a more restrained
and steely style than other generous and round. Or as Hubert Trimbach puts
it in his own words; “Concentrated not heavy; fruity, not sweet; bracing rather
than fat; polite rather than voluptuous". The most legendary of their wines
is Clos Saint Hune, a small single vineyard that has been in the family for
over 200 years. It is widely regarded as one of the top Rieslings of the world.

WEINBACH
Domaine Weinbach was founded by the Capucin monks in 1612. The main
house is still surrounded by the original 9 th Century monastic vineyard, the
Clos du Capucin and all of the estate’s wines are still labelled with this
name. In 1898 the estate was purchased by the Faller family in which
hands it still remains. The vineyards are farmed organically and only estate
grown fruit are used in order to have total control over the quality. The
wines are complex, sophisticated and shows excellent depth and typicity.
A real gem of Alsace!
