The site above Guebwiller is one of the steepest and most idiosyncratic Grands Crus of the region, and Domaines Schlumberger has been cultivating it for generations with a consistency that one feels in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSchlumberger is the largest private winery in Alsace by area: around 140 hectares, a significant portion of which is in the Grands Crus Kitterlé, Kessler, Saering, and Spiegel. The Kitterlé itself is volcanically influenced sandstone with steep terraces and southern exposure — soils that store heat and force vines to deep rooting. Pinot Gris reacts to this terroir with density and aromatic intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, a luscious style with clear structure shows: ripe yellow plum, candied apricot, a hint of white pepper and ginger in the background. The sweetness does not appear heavy because it is carried by a lively acidity and a slightly salty, mineral note. The finish is long, warm, and spicy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine pairs best with dishes that can handle sweetness and spice: fried duck breast with orange sauce, strongly spiced blue cheese like Roquefort, or a classic Alsatian Munster cheese pastry. \u003cstrong\u003eServing temperature: 10–12 °C.\u003c\/strong\u003e Those who use it as a dessert accompaniment are right with Tarte Tatin or an almond cake.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaines Schlumberger","offers":[{"title":"2022","offer_id":53538629484880,"sku":"VJ3066-2022","price":47.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/054010_4647bf64-5502-4ff1-bb88-d39dc12d4ba0.jpg?v=1788442293","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/pinot-gris-grand-cru-kitterle-ac-alsace-grand-cru-0-75l","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
