            [Notes1] => The robe is golden yellow with light reflections, of medium 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, starfruit, 
banana, mango, papaya and passion fruit. The airing enhances these scents and reveals 
flowers, violet, candied citrus fruits, citron, orange blossom and spices, Sichuan pepper. The 
fragrance profile is perfect, very exotic. It is still fresh and gives a lot of pleasure.
The onset in the mouth is dense and shows a beautiful silky and mellow touch. The alcohol 
support is well-balanced. The wine evolves on an incisive medium, marked by a sparkling 
note. We find the same aromas as on the nose, still dominated by banana, starfruit, papaya, 
mango, passion fruit, flowers, violet, citron, orange blossom, spices, candied ginger and 
Sichuan pepper. We perceive a fine tasty bitterness. The finish has a long length, 11-12 
caudalies, as well as a light bitterness and a fine persistent liveliness. The balance of this wine 
shows a beautifully digestible liqueur, compensated by a fantastic liveliness that purifies the 
tasting and the aromatic radiance of the grape variety
            [Notes2] => This Gewurztraminer `Vendanges Tardives` wine comes exclusively from the Grand Cru Kessler vineyard. The plot covers 29 hectares, 22 of which are owned by the domaine. It sits at between 300 to 390 metres on a sandstone soil. In its centre, the hill forms a small valley (Kessler) which shelters it from the North winds and from the cold draughts. On the slopes the vineyards are arranged into terraces and are worked by horses, lessening compaction and thus the potential for erosion. The vineyards are farmed biodynamically.
            [Notes3] => 
            [Notes4] => 
Dense and oily with yellow peach and tropical fruit flavours with an edge of fresh herb. This beautifully made wine bursting with character has an amazingly long finish. 93 points Wine Spectator. 
            [MediaNotes] => 
            [ServingSuggestion] => It can be associated with a blue-veined cheese such as the Stichelton, a fresh fruit 
minestrone with ginger or a poached white peach with Champagne zabaglione and pistachio 
ice-cream. Serve at a temperature of 12°C.
            [WineMakingNotes] => Harvested manually from our steep vineyards, the grapes are then transported in small 
crates (to prevent the berries from getting crushed) to our winery where they are then slowly 
pressed. After racking for about 3 days, the perfectly clear juices are put to ferment in tuns 
where the temperature is strictly controlled. Fermentations last from 1 to 3 months until 
spring. The wines are then stabilised, filtered and then bottled.

Thanks to the foresight of Ernest Schlumberger at the turn of the 19th Century, the family lands increased from just 20ha to 140ha. Ernest purchased 
phylloxera-ravaged vineyards, replanting and resurrecting as he went. Over half of these vineyards are classified as Grand Cru sites, producing steely mineral led wines from the four famous Grand Crus of Guebwiller: Saering, Kitterle, Kessler and Spiegel. The wines have longevity and life, not just from these steep stony sites but from a deep rooted culture of organics, 
sustainability and on 30ha, biodynamic farming. Séverine Beydon-

sustainability and on 30ha, biodynamic farming. Séverine Beydon-
Schlumberger and her brother Thomas now run the company with their Uncle Alain Freyburger making the wines in tandem with nature.

                    [Notes4] => A young team led by séverine beydon-schlumberger and alain freyburger, the wine maker.  the largest vineyard holders in alsace of which over 50% are grand cru status.  their second wines bearing ‘princes abbés’ labels, nevertheless contain considerable quantities of fruit from the grand cru vineyards.  the style is rich and intense.  on our visit, we were amazed by the attention to detail from the upkeep of 45km of drystone walls on the steep mountainside vineyards to the complete modernisation of equipment in the winery.  the rieslings are charming and supple; the intense fruit of the pinot gris is sensational and lovers of gewürztraminer will be delighted by these rich, balanced wines.
