Pinot gris is a white wine grape variety from France and the varietal wine that shares its name. A mutation of pinot noir, pinot gris originated in Burgundy in the Middle Ages and was rediscovered in 1711 in Germany, where it's known as grauburgunder and ruländer.In France it is always referred to as pinot gris, with the “gris” part of the name meaning “grey” in French, a direct nod to the colouring of the skin of the grape.
The different styles of Pinot Gris wine can vary just as much as the grape colour (blue-grey to pink). Crisp, light, dry examples of Pinot Gris are extremely food-friendly.
