Rich, ample whites with a golden robe, showing aromas of pear, quince, honey, smoke, ginger and spice. Made as structured dry wines (Alsace AOC), off-dry and sumptuous late-harvest sweet (vendange tardive, sélection de grains nobles). Lighter and crisper in Italy as Pinot Grigio (Veneto, Friuli). Also in Germany (Grauburgunder), Hungary (Szürkebarát) and Oregon. A grey mutation of Pinot Noir.
Wine state of the northern American Midwest, harsh continental climate requiring cold-hardy hybrids. Signature Marquette in red: deep robe with signature notes of black cherry, plum, black pepper, cocoa and a herbaceous touch, firm tannins and lively acidity — bred for these extreme climates. Also spicy Maréchal Foch, Léon Millot. Aromatic whites: muscaty La Crescent (apricot, honey), fruity Brianna, vivid La Crosse, Saint Pepin.
