Details
This is a delightfully fresh, young Pinot Grigio complete with vibrant pear drop notes that leap from the glass. Subtle flavours of orchard fruit and lemon curd spread themselves across the palate making this a seriously delicious, easy-drinking wine. Don't waste any time in getting this into your glass.
Origin: Burgundy, in eastern France. Mainly Grown In: Italy (as Pinot Grigio), Germany (as Grauburgunder - the local name for Pinot Gris), USA, France (as Pinot Gris). Key Facts: Drum roll please... Pinot Gris and Pinot Grigio are two different names for THE SAME GRAPE VARIETY. The use of Gris or Grigio depends on which country the grape was grown in and subtle stylistic differences. Pinot Grigio is the Italian version, and is typically known for being light and zesty. Where as Pinot Gris, the French version of the grape, is often richer and riper tasting with some spiciness. When made outside of Italy and France, Grigio or Gris name is used as a marker to define the style that the winemaker thinks it suits best; lean like Italian Pinot Grigio or riper and rounder like the French Pinot Gris. Fun Fact: Did you know that the Pinot Gris grapes aren't actually white like many other white grape types? The skin colour is actually more of a greyish-pink colour.

Pairing guide
The bright, light white wines of Italy's Veneto region are never less than joyful to drink, bringing a zesty liveliness to the table with their gorgeous flavour and dazzling crispness. This bottle of Pinot Grigio is no exception, and we love sipping it alongside Iberian classics like barbecued sardines and other white fish (especially bass and bream), seafood salads, grilled chicken and pork recipes, and all kinds of simple rice and pasta dishes.
