The 1998 is a killer vintage for Trimbach's Frederic Emile. It has an ethereal bouquet with hints of pineapple, lime flower, crushed white flowers and a hint of petrol. The palate is very taut with superb acidity, hints of fresh ginger, lime and hazelnut with superb focus on the elegant, refined finish. It is its composure that is so beguiling and I suspect it will outlast the -97.

Appealing aromas and flavors of quince, pine forest and minerals unfold on a dry, firm structure. There's plumpness and apple pie flavor on the midpalate, with a cinnamon note. Ends with an almond and mineral aftertaste.

A good vintage requiring selective harvesting around the rains. Noble rot present at the end of the harvest. Yellow-green, fairly deep color. Very aromatic, fine, complex nose offering notes of orange, anise, pepper and spices. Fresh. Soft and fairly full palate, where the wine flows over a ripe flavor and a finish I was hoping would be a little more taut. It is above all the mid-palate that shines, even if the length remains aromatic.

Very very deep, mineral flavours. Tingly acidity. Some lychee notes in its relatively rich nose thanks to the noble rot that affected about 30% of the grapes and makes this, like the famous 1989, all of which qualified as at least Vendange Tardive, relatively early maturing and open.
