Alsace does not allow village denominations on its labels since most growers farm 6 or more varietals in multiple villages. Given that a complete cellar tasting of one vintage can easily run up to 30+ wines as it is, one can only imagine the level of complexity that would result from including the villages.
However, given that Trapet brings a Burgundian perspective to the wines of Alsace, it is only normal that they would find creative ways to identify the village for non-vineyard specific wines.
Vinified dry from their vineyards in Kientzheim, south of Riquewihr, this classic-styled dry riesling shows medium high acid and plenty of minerals. Aromatics of key lime pie render these components extremely enjoyable and very food-friendly. Long and tense in the mouth, this wine will evolve gracefully for several years.
