What is "Pinot Gris"?

Pinot Gris is a grayish (‘gris’ means ‘gray’ in French) pink grape variety which is used to make white wines. It is related to Pinot Noir. It is popular in the Alsace region of France, but is grown word-wide.

In Italian, Pinot Gris is known as Pinot Grigio – there is no difference between them. When you pronounce ‘grigio’ be aware that it is a 2 syllable word ‘GREE/djoh’, and not a 3 syllable word (gree/djee/oh) as many English speakers seem to think it is.
