2024 Vignerons Schmolzer & Brown Grauburgunder

This is the way Pinot Gris should be treated.

The Grauburgunder (German for Pinot Gris) spends a good time on skins before being pressed, allowing the natural colour and tannin of the variety to shine.

It's an excellent first crack at the wine style. There's loads of fresh stone fruit and florals to be enjoyed, yet the flavours are fresh and crisp, with clean acidity and plenty of definition.

So many producers are coming out with amber wines at the moment, and this is one of the most successful releases we've seen. Simply delectable.
