Reviews & Scores
A fabulous wine with spice, mineral, salt and dried fruits. Hints of pear and dried apple too. Full and layered with great depth and power. Salty. Limestone and degraded fossilized seashells. - JS

White peach and mint aromas are complicated by delicate herbs and chlorophyll on the enticing nose. Intensely flavored and deep, conveying a saline freshness to the stone fruit and herb flavors. Finishes pliant and long, with firm minerality and a suggestion of gingery spices. This Frédéric Emile is more influenced by the Geisberg than the 2014; it's more showy and concentrated than the 2014 Frédéric Emile but perhaps less refined. It'll be great fun to compare these two FE's side by side in ten years time. - VM

Trimbach's medium golden-colored 2013 Riesling Cuvée Frédéric Emile opens with a correspondingly matured nose that is elegant and pure yet also quite developed, with overripe apricot, stewed peach and yellow curry but also sliced pancake aromas. Sourced from vines averaging 45 years of age in the grand cru sites Geisberg and Osterberg in Ribeauvillé, this is a pure and persistently saline, mouth-filling but already fading Riesling that has developed far too fast for my tastes. It is still a very complex Riesling with intense fruit, fine tannins and mineral vibrancy; but if this bottle is representative, due to the overripe (and botrytized) fruit and the drying finish, it shall be drunk soon, at least within a decade. A sample tasted two months ago was also very ripe but more vivacious (95 RP). 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2023. - WA
