Descendants of a long line of wine enthusiasts, Hubert and Bernard Trimbach manage the property with their sons Pierre and Jean. Firmly rooted in Alsace since 1626, the Trimbach name rapidly gained a regional and then international reputation, largely thanks to Frédéric-Emile Trimbach at the end of the 19th century. The property is located on some magnificent terroirs, some benefitting from grand cru status, but appellation approval has never really interested the Trimbach family, who prefer to produce distinguished blends that they market under their own brand names. Their vinification methods have resisted the siren call of modern technology; the owners monitor every stage, with a strict respect for tradition, in order to ensure that the famous "Trimbach style" is preserved, which serves as an international benchmark for Alsace wines.

These Late Harvest wines are reserved for the four noble grap varities: Riesling, Gerwurztraminer, Pinot Gris and Muscat. The ripe fruit, generally presenting the desired noble rot, is harvested by hand from the best vineyards only in exceptional years. These rarefied Vendanges Tardives retain natural residual sugar which is perfectly balanced with a distinguished freshness. This drinking nectar is a real meditation wine, to be enjoyed by itself or paired with a blue veined cheese which marries particularly well with the unique, delectable flavours deriving from noble rot.
