Traditionally called grauer burgunder in Baden, this pinot gris is labelled pinot grigio to latch on to the commercial success of Italy’s grigios. Deinhard 2005 Pinot Grigio tastes more German, however, with a very mild peachy, bready, dried straw nose. A soft, fresh and slightly spritzy texture. Good length. LCBO 473595
