Domaines Schlumberger Gewurztraminer Princes Abbes 2022 750ml

The color is golden yellow with intense green reflections. The disk is bright, limpid and transparent. The wine is youthful.

The nose is frank, pleasant and intense. Exotic aromas dominate, with grapefruit, pineapple, mngo, carambola and lychee.
Aeration amplifies these scents, revealing banana, papaya, passion fruit, spices and candied ginger. The nose glows with tropical fragrances.
Racy and bright, the grape variety radiates pleasure.

The attack on the palate is dense is incisive, marked by pearlescence. The range of aromas on the nose is again exotic, with papaya, grapefruit, pineapple, passion fruit, mango, star fruit, banana, spices and candied ginger. There’s a hint of bitterness.
The finish has great length, 9-10 caudalies, as well as strict vivacity and persistent bitterness. The structure is luscious and ticks all the boxes of a fine Gewurztraminer.
Exuberant and dazzling, it calls for tasty cuisine.
