About this wine

This Bollenberg Pinot Gris is generally dry, broad and food-friendly, showing ripe yellow fruit, pear and a gentle spicy edge. Its full texture is held in balance by notably fresh acidity, giving the wine tension and length. Ripeness and any residual sugar can vary slightly by vintage.
