Details and technical informations about Domaine Migot's Pinot Gris.
Discover the grape variety: Pinot gris
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.

The wine region of Côtes de Toul
Lorraine AOC between Toul and the Meuse (~75 ha, vineyard sung by Ausonius in 350 AD), semi-continental cool climate, clay-limestone hillsides. Vin gris signature speciality: pale rosé blending Gamay (<=85%) and Pinot Noir (>=10%) by direct pressing — fresh and fruity with raspberry, redcurrant, citrus and floral touch, lively thirst-quenching finish. Ample Auxerrois in white and airy Pinot Noir in light red. Revived Lorraine identity, everyday wine.
The wine region of Moselle
World benchmark for cool-climate German Riesling, on vertiginous blue and grey slate slopes. Pure, precise whites with signature notes of lime, green apple, white peach, white flowers and marked chalky minerality ("gunflint"), low alcohol (~8-10%), taut acidity and crystalline tension. From dry Kabinett to sweet Auslese, up to luscious Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese and Eiswein. Also Müller-Thurgau and Elbling.
The word of the wine: Water stress
Lack of water. Water stress blocks the vegetative cycle of the vine, which uses all available resources to maintain the integrity of the plant, thus blocking the ripening process of the grapes.
