Pinot Gris
Pinot Gris is a genetic mutation of the black Pinot Noir grape which normally has a grayish-blue fruit, accounting for its name (gris meaning ""gray"" in French) but the grapes can have a brownish pink to black and even white appearance. Unlike the Pinot Grigio style, which is light, fresh and fairly neutral, wines labeled Pinot Gris tend to be more full-bodied, richer, spicier, and more viscous in texture. They also tend to have greater cellaring and ageing potential.
