Showing a unique rosy, purplish hue upon full ripeness, this ?white? variety is actually born out of a mutation of Pinot noir. The grape boasts two versions of its name, as well as two generally distinct styles. In Italy, Pinot grigio achieves most success in the mountainous regions of?Trentino?and?Alto Adige?as well as in the neighboring?Friuli?all in Italy?s northeast. France's?Alsace?and Oregon's?Willamette Valleyproduce some of the world's most well-regarded Pinot gris wine.?California?produces both styles with success.
Pinot Gris is naturally low in acidity but full ripeness is necessary to achieve and showcase its signature flavors and aromas of stone fruit, citrus, honeysuckle, pear and almond. Alsatian styles are aromatic (think rose and honey), richly textured and sometimes relatively higher in alcohol compared to its Italian counterparts. As Pinot Grigio in Italy, the style is often much lighter, charming and fruit driven.
