Pinot Grigio
Top countries producing this wine: |
One of the most familiar grape names to any wine drinker, Pinot Grigio is the Italian name for the Pinot Gris of France, named for its pinkish-grey skin. One of the best-known mutations of Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio is much appreciated for its soft, gentle texture, light body and pleasing perfume. While Italy makes a light, crisp style, the Pinot Gris of Alsace is bolder, riper and fatter, with rich flavors that stand up to the traditional cured sausages and hearty cuisine of the region. Oregon producers, for the most part, also call their flavorful version Pinot Gris. Along with Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris has become a flagship grape for this region. The body is often fuller than the Italian style, with concentrated flavors of peach, apple, lime sherbet, and almonds. |

Though Australia lacks the history and tradition of other top wine-producing countries like France and Italy, it has definitely made its mark on the international wine market in recent years. During the 1990s, winemaking and wine exports boomed in Australia. Though the market has come back to earth a bit in recent years, Australia is still the fourth-largest exporter of wine in the world. When casual wine drinkers think of Australian wine, they probably think of the critter-laden labels of Yellow Tail and The Little Penguin, among others. And while large wine companies dominate the Australian list, there are also a great number of smaller producers creating highly-rated, award-winning wines. The majority of Australian wine is produced in South Australia, with most of that (those “critter wines”) carrying a South Eastern Australia appellation. Subregions such as Barossa Valley, Coonawarra and McLaren Vale are home to smaller producers and higher quality wines. Victoria and New South Wales are also significant regions, and wines from Western Australia are reaching America in increasing numbers. Though Shiraz is the grape most associated with Australia, they’ve also had great success with Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Riesling and Grenache. |
