Production Details Fruit from the warm, early Mandelberg site was fermented dry in stainless-steel tanks, bottled in spring and matured for at least three years before release. The portfolio description gives a one-hectare source, agreeing with Trimbach’s current page, while the quoted 2021 reviewer describes a 1.6-hectare plot. That site-area conflict remains unresolved. The same review reports 7.96 g/L of tartaric-basis acidity; it is retained contextually and not entered as individual tartaric acid or unqualified total acidity.
Tasting Notes

Production Details Early-ripening Mittelwihr vineyard at 690–755 feet, with an average yield of 40–45 hl/ha. Mature grapes were selected, crushed and pneumatically pressed; the wine was fermented dry in stainless steel without malolactic fermentation or prolonged lees ageing. Top Selection separately reports “Acidity 7.16 g/L” without identifying its analytical basis, so that figure is retained here rather than entered as total acidity.
