Discover the grape variety: Pinot gris
Pinot Gris is a grey grape variety mutated from Pinot Noir. It has its origins in Burgundy, where it is called pinot-beurot in reference to the colour of the grey robes worn by the monks of the region. Established in Alsace since the 17th century, pinot gris was called tokay until 2007. It is made up of bunches of small berries that vary in colour from pink to blue-grey. It is particularly well suited to the continental climate because it is resistant to the cold in winter and to spring frosts. This variety also likes dry limestone soils with plenty of sunshine in the summer. Pinot Gris is well suited to late harvesting or to the selection of noble grapes, depending on the year and the concentration of sugars in the berries. Pinot Gris wines are distinguished by their aromatic complexity of white fruits, mushrooms, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, etc., and their great finesse. In the Loire Valley, pinot gris is used in the Coteaux-d'Ancenis appellations. It gives dry or sweet wines with pear and peach aromas.

The wine region of Coteaux de Coiffy
Coteaux de Coiffy is a PGI title for wines that are produced in the southwestern Part of the Haute-Marne department, in northeastern France, halfway between the wine regions of Burgundy and Alsace. Only a small amount of wine is produced here because of the difficult Terroir, and the PGI does not overlap with any AOC-level appellation. The IGP wines of Coteaux de Coiffy borrow heavily from their Burgundian and Alsatian neighbours in terms of Grape varieties. Pinot Noir, Gamay, Chardonnay and Auxerrois are all allowed in the Vineyards, as are Gewurztraminer and Muscat.
The word of the wine: Carbonic maceration
Fermentation of whole grapes in a carbon dioxide-saturated atmosphere. This type of fermentation produces very aromatic and flattering wines.
