The wine has a bright straw yellow color, which anticipates its freshness and liveliness. On the nose, "Les Princes Abbés" expresses a wide aromatic palette, characterized by notes of white pulp fruit, such as green apple and pear, citrus accents, and floral touches, all enriched by a distinctive minerality which is a hallmark of Riesling Alsatian. These aromas are delicately intertwined with flint nuances and a light balsamic note, giving the wine complexity and depth.
In the mouth, the Riesling "Les Princes Abbés" reveals itself to be balanced and harmonious, with a crisp acidity that supports its structure and enhances its freshness. The palate is flooded with fresh fruit flavors and penetrating minerality, which blend into a long, clean finish, with a persistence that invites another sip.
Ideal as an aperitif, this Riesling is also a perfect companion for a variety of dishes, ranging from light appetizers to dishes based on fish, seafood and Asian cuisine, demonstrating an incredible versatility that makes it suitable to accompany a wide range of culinary occasions.
"Les Princes Abbés" by Domaines Schlumberger is not just a wine, but a testimony to the ability of this historic winery to interpret Riesling, offering an experience that combines tradition and modernity, and which reflects the rich terroir of Alsace with every sip.
