Description
Domaines Schlumberger Grand Cru Kessler Gewurztraminer
The robe is golden yellow with green reflections of good intensity. The disk is bright, limpid and transparent. The wine shows youth.
The nose is marked, pleasant and intense. We perceive a dominant of exotic scents: passion fruit, papaya, citrus fruits (grapefruit, candied orange) and flowers (rose). The airing enhances these scents and reveals mango and spices (candied ginger, white pepper).
Perfect profile of a great Gewurztraminer! As usual, this Kessler expresses an extrovert quintessence admirably balanced by the freshness of the vintage.
The onset in the mouth is dense, marrowy and the alcohol support is full bodied.
The wine evolves on an incisive medium, marked by a sparkling note. We find the same exotic aromas as on the nose, dominated by papaya, passion fruit, mango, citrus fruits (blood orange, grapefruit), flowers (rose) and spices (white pepper, candied ginger). We can taste a delicate bitterness.
The finish has a long length, 10-11 caudalies, and a frank and persistent liveliness. The great and delicious balance is echoed in the vertical precision of the terroir.
The range of flavors expands the structure with its stimulating charm. Great wine!
This wine can be associated with spicy cuisines: Thai king prawns, a chicken curry with bananas and onions, a soup with hot shrimps and coconut milk or a blue-veined cheese such as the Fourme d’Ambert… Serve at a temperature of 12°C.
The Domaines Schlumberger Grand Cru Kessler Gewurztraminer goes well with Foie gras, Apéritifs, Strong cheeses, Asian food, Dessert, Sweety / Salty.
