Jean Trimbach on Alsace
Jean Trimbach is one of the icons of Alsace and the 12th generation at the helm this benchmark family winery with his brother Pierre. Jessica catches up with Jean before an epic dinner at Jeffrey's and chats about all things Alsace. Hailing from Ribeauvillé, Trimbach is making glorious Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Riesling and Gewurtztraminer amongst other things. Jean delves into the soils of Alsace, the balance of the wines even in warm vintages, and how beautifuly these wines are with Asian cuisine, well, really any cuisine. Plus, he reveals where the winery is going in the future and the 13th and 14th generations that will soon be custodian of their land.
