Vintage Report

The 2022 growing season was characterized by a unique climate with ample sunshine and cooling winds, which ensured a balanced ripening process. The grapes were hand-picked in the early morning to preserve their freshness and finesse.

We are so happy to be able to sell Domaines Schlumberger's Alsace wines, because they are truly beautiful. This is largely due to the winery's long history. It all began when a former tannery, led by Claus Schlumberger, relocated to France. Specifically, in the town of Guebwiller, which was dominated by monks known as "The Princes Abbés." Claus wasn't happy there and soon moved to Mulhouse, a free and Protestant city. There, he married his wife and had many children. One of them was Nicolas Schlumberger. He took over from his father and built a larger cellar in 1810, cultivating the finest wines on twenty hectares. This makes the Schlumberger family one of the oldest wineries in Alsace. Even today, Domaines Schlumberger's wines are still produced by the family, and we find great depth in their range.

Completely hand-harvested for this Gewürztraminer

There's a great love for the Gewürztraminer grape, and the grapes come from various vineyards, primarily Bollenberg and Bux, as well as young vines from Schlumberger's Grand Cru vineyards. The vineyards have a unique climate, providing the Gewürztraminer with ample sunshine and cool breezes. This coolness is crucial for a smooth and balanced ripening process. Once ripe, the grapes are harvested entirely by hand in the early morning, minimizing the risk of oxidation and damage. The Gewürztraminer grapes are transported to the press in small crates, where the entire wine is aged on the lees. This period lasts approximately eight months, allowing the wine to develop its finesse and power.

Full and very powerful this Schlumberger Gewürztraminer

This is a complete glass of Gewürztraminer, simply a celebration. It begins the moment you open the bottle, as it releases aromas of candied, exotic fruits (passion fruit, mango, papaya, and lychee). Grab a large glass so you can swirl it vigorously, as this white Schlumberger Gewürztraminer reveals everything. It begins with the beautiful yellow color and the wonderful aroma of vanilla, banana, yellow fruit, pear, peach, and spices (candied ginger). The taste is smooth and typical of Gewürztraminer, with a lovely thick texture and abundant fruit nuances of mango, papaya, passion fruit, banana, white peach, pear, lychee, vanilla, and various spices. The finish leaves a slight tingle and some notes of honey and vanilla.
