Wine Expert Note:

n the glass, Domaines Schlumberger Les Princes Abbés Riesling glistens with a bright straw-yellow hue. The nose is immediately captivating with aromatic waves of green apple, lime zest, and hints of wet stone, indicative of its Alsace origin. The palate reveals a wine of impeccable balance, with crisp acidity counterpointed by the variety's characteristic fruitiness – think ripe citrus fruits, touches of peach, and a distinct mineral undertone. The finish is long and invigorating, with the mineral and citrus notes lingering. This Riesling shines alongside dishes like seafood salads, roasted poultry, or Alsatian specialties such as tarte flambée, brilliantly reflecting the terroir from which it hails.
