Pinot Gris

Alsatian white varietal

Pinot Gris is a white wine grape variety with grayish-blue skin, producing wines that range from light and crisp to rich and full-bodied.

The same grape is called Pinot Grigio in Italian winemaking, where it typically yields lighter, more acidic wines.

I'll have a glass of the Pinot Gris.
