Description
In a nutshell:
A rich and honeyed and mellow Grand Cru Alsatian Gewurztraminer.
The lowdown:
Gewurztraminer is one of the signature grape varieties of Alsace and in the expert hands of Domaines Schlumberger it gets a chance to really shine. The fruit for this is grown entirely in the Grand Cru Kessler vineyard in the southern Alsatian valley of Guebwiller. After fermentation the fruit is aged in its lees for a further 8 months to gain layres of complexity. Undeniably intense and opulent, it has a quite rich turkish delight flavour and there's warm, rounded spice exploding on the palate with every sip. Whilst in the medium sweet category the well judged citrus acidity provides excellent balance and making this undoubtedly a class act.
When to drink:
The richness here is just the thing to partner with goose, or turkey dishes and it's also an ideal partner to curried recipes.
