This diversity contributes to the wine’s complexity and depth. The 2022 vintage experienced favorable growing conditions, leading to optimal grape maturity and balanced acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrape Varietals \u0026amp; Percentage Used\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e100% Pinot Noir\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVinification \u0026amp; Aging Methods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eGrapes are selected at maturity and, after de-stemming, undergo gentle pneumatic pressing followed by an eight-day cold maceration to extract color and fruit. The juices are blended in stainless steel vats and old casks for malolactic fermentation. Unlike other Trimbach wines, the Pinot Noirs undergo malolactic fermentation to enhance their texture and complexity. To preserve all its fruitiness and finesse, this wine is not aged in barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eABV (Alcohol by Volume)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eApproximately 13%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe 2022 Trimbach Pinot Noir Réserve develops aromas of red fruits.
