From Pinot Gris vines almost 50 years old and vinified on the lees for about 20 months, the 2020 Grauer Burgunder Musbrugger offers a pure, deep and substantial nose of ripe fruit aromas intermingled with notes of crushed stones, herbal infusion, oatmeal, fine tannins and a hint of new oak. Rich, refined and elegant on the palate, this is a full-bodied, dense and concentrated, intense and powerful Pinot Gris with fine tannins and elegant, mineral acidity. It is very, very long and saline, with drying tannins but a rich extract and a complex aftertaste. 13.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork stopper. Tasted in November 2022 (L 11 22). ... More details

Sweeping elegance. Creamy, but fantastically slim thanks to mature acidity. Scent, among other things. for flowers and fresh pastries. Lime in the mouth, sweet melon and earthy flavor. This Pinot Gris has an aging potential of at least ten years.

Varietal: Pinot Gris

Pinot Grigio is fast becoming one of the most widely planted white wine grape varietals in the world, due to the fact that the wines made from it are increasing in popularity with global audiences, and the fact it has the ability to match with a wide variety of different foods. This grape varietal is notably for its color, or colors, which range from grayish blue to amber, from pink to purple depending on the climatic conditions and other such variables in the place where they are grown. Pinot Grigio grapes tend to ripen early, yet have a relatively high natural sugar content. This makes them ideal for a wide range of winery methods, and they can either be drank young and slightly sweet, or can be fermented more for extra dryness or a higher alcohol level.

Country: Germany

Much has changed over the past few decades in regards to German wine. Long gone are the days of mass produced, sickly sweet white wines which were once the chief exports of this fascinating and ancient wine producing country, and they have been replaced with something far more sophisticated. Whilst Germany continues to produce a relatively large amount of dessert wine, the wineries of the south of the country have reverted their attention to the production of drier, more elegant wines which really make the most of the fine grape varieties which flourish there. Many of the wineries dealing primarily with the excellent Riesling grapes have produced some truly exceptional dry and semi-sweet wines over the past few years, and it seems the world has finally woken up and noticed the extremely high quality of the distinctive produce coming out of Germany today.
