| VM 90+ (11/2003): Pale gold color. Explosive fruit aromas of peach, quince and orange zest, complicated by butter and smoke. Big, rich, dusty and chewy, with a flavor of orange marmalade. Very dense, strong pinot gris with noteworthy inner-mouth energy. Finishes very long, with no impression of heaviness. It's becoming increasingly difficult to find seriously rich but dry pinot gris like this. Stephen Tanzer. |

WA 96 (10/2002): Sweet chamomile is interwoven with botrytis in the aromatics of the 2000 Pinot Gris Sonnenglanz Vendanges Tardives. Medium-bodied, complex, and powerful, this raisin, poached pear, and apricot-flavored wine is exceptionally harmonious. Drink it between 2005 and 2020.
VM 89-91 (7/2001): Subdued but tangy aroma dominated by peach. Thick and generous, with ripe, well-integrated acidity nicely framing the pit fruit and brown spice flavors. A long, pliant fruit bomb. Stephen Tanzer. |

| VM 87-89 (7/2001): Pear blossom, lime, honeysuckle and licorice on the nose; distinct signs of tangy botrytis. Then spicy and a bit sugary in the mouth; has only 10 grams or so of residual sugar, but the sweetness has not yet been absorbed. Seems a bit disjointed today. Stephen Tanzer. |

Pinot Gris Hommage a Jeanne |

WA 93 (12/2001): The 2000 Pinot Gris Hommage a Jeanne was produced from a selection of Trimbach's best Pinot Gris parcels (all harvested at over 15% natural potential alcohol). It sports 25 grams per liter of dry extract and 20 grams per liter of residual sugar. While at most firms this wine would merit a Vendanges Tardives bottling, the Trimbachs chose to pay homage to Jeanne Trimbach, the mother of Bernard and Hubert, who turned 100 in May 2000 and continues to drink Alsace's lovely nectars to this day. This gorgeous wine has mineral and smoke-imbued white peach aromas. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, dense, and rich. Layer after layer of apricot, poached pear, white peach, and spices can be found in its highly expressive, velvety-textured personality. It is an intensely concentrated, wonderfully balanced, fresh, and structured wine.
VM 92 (7/2001): Superripe but bright aromas of peach and honey. Very rich and honeyed; sweeter and less alcoholic than the Reserve Personnelle, and more easygoing at this early stage. Some of this fruit was picked very late, at VT weight. This very rich, long tokay makes the Reserve Personnelle seem almost riesling-like by comparison. Still, there only a moderate 19 grams/liter of residual sugar here. Stephen Tanzer. |

VM 91 (6/2001): Musky aromas of orange oil, minerals and hazelnut. Very ripe, concentrated and deep, but comes across as just off-dry thanks to sound acids and the substantial alcohol. Rather bracing tokay, with the balance and backbone to last well in bottle. The Trimbachs thinned the crop in early August and again in early September, ultimately bringing in just 45 hectoliters per hectare. Stephen Tanzer.
WA 90 (12/2001): The 2000 Pinot Gris Reserve Personnelle is a richer, riper, denser, and more powerful version of the Reserve model. Medium to full-bodied and sporting a smoky mineral-scented nose, it coats the palate with velvety-textured layers of white peaches, smoke, minerals, and spices. This is an extremely well-made wine for consuming between 2005 and 2014. |
