The Trimbachs were starting to bottle their '98s in early May, beginning with the big wines in order to ensure that they did not sit in a warm cellar in the summer.This vintage featured higher-than-average acidity for riesling and pinot gris, but gewürztraminer acids were lower than those of '97.The '98 rieslings remind export director Jean Trimbach of '95, but winemaker Pierre Trimbach points out that pinot gris was difficult in '98 as crop levels were high and grey rot spread quickly after the October 1 rainstorm.Still, notes Jean, "everyone wants pinot gris today; riesling is too intellectual for most of the market."Incidentally, Jean and Pierre consider '97 a five-star vintage for both riesling and gewürztraminer, better than '98, '96 or '95.I have included notes on a few important current releases from vintages prior to '97.Trimbach remains one of Alsace few reliable sources of excellent dry wines.
