Schlumberger Alsace Grand Crus Kitterle Riesling 2019

The robe is lemon yellow with green 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 scents of delicate vegetal, white flowers and citrus fruits (lemon zest and lime). The airing enhances the previous scents and reveals a mineral touch of naphtha, slightly smoked. Ripe and complex, the fragrance profile gives prominence to the terroir. It requires time to assert itself. The onset in the mouth is moderately ample, slender. The alcohol support is balanced. The wine evolves on a medium with a frank liveliness, marked by a sparkling note. The range of flavours is in line with that of the nose, still dominated by citrus fruits (clementine, lime), white flowers, spices (ginger) and this slight yet complex smoked mineral touch of naphtha. We can taste a delicate bitterness. The finish has a long length, 5-6 caudalies, as well as a frank and persistent liveliness. The profile is pure and crystalline, embellished by the terroir character. It requires time to open. Winery note
