Sails

Trimbach 2008 Riesling “Réserve” (Alsace) – Sulfurous, though mildly so. Yet it does obscure. Underneath that sulfur there’s a heck of a wine…powerful, iron-cored, bracing…but I think this has been treated for the long haul, which it should have no problem enduring. Now, it’s just sulfurous. (3/11)

So leave my "test bottle" alone? Did you know there is also a 2008 Cuvee 'M'. I had it the other night - very promising.

In 2015, when I post notes from my 2010 visit, you'll have my take on it. ;-)

Well that should work, as I have no plans to drink any of it in the next 4 years.
