Alsace Domaines Schlumberger Pinot Gris Les Princes Abbes
The color is golden yellow with light reflections of good intensity. The disk is
bright, limpid and transparent. The wine is youthful.
The nose is frank, pleasant, a little restrained. A fine, dominant scent of autumn
fruits, quince, Mirabelle plum and orange blossom. Aeration amplifies these
scents, revealing mushroom, honey, caramel and orgeat. Complex and racy, the
nose testifies to the perfect health of the grapes. Already very pleasant, it has a
bright future ahead of it.
The attack on the palate is moderately full-bodied and soft, with balanced
alcohol support. The mid-palate is incisive, marked by pearlescence. The range
of aromas on the nose is still dominated by Mirabelle plum and quince, but also
orange blossom, orgeat, button mushroom, honey and caramel. There’s a hint
of savory bitterness. The finish is long, 8-9 caudalies, with a clean vivacity and
persistent bitterness. Excellent balance, flattering and firm at the same time,
this wine delights with its delicacy and character.
