More About the 2020 DOMAINES SCHLUMBERGER LES PRINCES ABBES RIESLING: The 2020 Domaines Schlumberger Les Princes Abbés Riesling is a white wine from the Alsace region of France, crafted exclusively from Riesling grapes. This wine is part of the "Les Princes Abbés" range, which is named in honor of the abbots who once managed the vineyards in the region. The 2020 vintage was characterized by favorable weather conditions that allowed the Riesling grapes to ripen fully, resulting in a wine that beautifully expresses the varietal's characteristics and the unique terroir of Alsace. In the glass, the 2020 Les Princes Abbés Riesling presents a bright, pale gold color with hints of green. On the nose, it offers an enticing bouquet of aromas, including notes of citrus fruits like lime and lemon, white flowers, and a subtle minerality that is typical of Rieslings from this region. There are also hints of green apple and a touch of petrol, which is a classic characteristic of aged Riesling, though this is more subdued in younger wines like the 2020 vintage. On the palate, the wine is dry, with a lively acidity that provides structure and balance. The flavors mirror the aromas, with a crisp, clean finish that is both refreshing and persistent. Domaines Schlumberger, the producer of this wine, is one of the largest and oldest family-owned estates in Alsace, with a history dating back to the early 19th century. The winery is renowned for its commitment to sustainable viticulture, and its vineyards are situated on steep, terraced slopes, which contribute to the unique quality of their wines. The 2020 Les Princes Abbés Riesling is a testament to their expertise, offering a pure expression of Alsace Riesling that is ideal for pairing with seafood, poultry, or dishes featuring Asian spices.
