Laure, the sister of Christine Schlumberger, was the first woman in the family to marry a Catholic. Her dedication to various charitable organizations is fondly remembered. This Pinot Gris Vendange Tardive, made entirely from the Grand Cru Spiegel vineyards, is produced from grapes grown on hillsides at elevations between 260 and 315 meters, within a marl-sandstone terroir that faces east. The wine has an expressive and pleasant aroma, characterized by intense notes of candied and overripe fruits. You can detect hints of honey, yellow fruits, quince, and mirabelle plum, along with a subtle floral touch. On the palate, the initial impression is semi-liqueur and full-bodied, leading to a vibrant and lively mid-palate. The finish is long and exhibits a refreshing liveliness, with a rich structure. This balanced semi-liqueur is enhanced by the quality of the botrytis in the grapes. The grapes were superbly sorted in the vineyard!

Domaine Schlumberger is a distinguished wine producer located in the Alsace region of France, renowned for its high-quality wines made from traditional Alsace grape varieties. Established in 1810 by Nicolas Schlumberger, the domaine has grown to become one of the largest and most respected vineyard owners in Alsace, with over 140 hectares of land, more than half of which are classified as Grand Cru.

The domaine is particularly well-known for its rigorous commitment to sustainable viticulture, having been a pioneer in Alsace for its early adoption of organic and later biodynamic farming practices. The steep vineyards of Domaine Schlumberger, such as those on the Grand Cru sites of Saering, Kessler, Kitterlé, and Spiegel, are worked almost entirely by hand due to their challenging terrain, which helps to ensure the highest quality of grape production.

Domaine Schlumberger produces a wide range of wines, focusing on varietals characteristic of the Alsace region, including Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Muscat. Their wines are celebrated for their intensity, complexity, and longevity, often showcasing a fine balance between fruity aromatics and a distinct minerality. This expression is a direct reflection of the diverse terroirs found within their vineyards. Schlumberger’s wines, particularly those from their Grand Cru sites, are highly esteemed for their depth and precision, making them favorites among enthusiasts of Alsace wines.
