Domaine Schlumberger

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.
