Details and technical informations about Winery Augustus's Pinot Grigio.
Discover the grape variety: Klevener de Heiligenstein
Aromatic, refined dry whites with a pale golden colour, a full palate and preserved acidity, showing signature aromas of discreet muscat notes (rose), white flowers, white-fleshed fruits (pear) and delicate spicy notes. A distinctive aromatic profile, more restrained than Gewurztraminer. Preserved under a specific Alsatian appellation around Heiligenstein (Bas-Rhin), producing identity-driven wines. Rare Alsatian white variety, identical to the Jurassian Savagnin Rose.

Bright peppery Syrah (blackberry, black olive), firm Cabernet, round Merlot, fruity Grenache.
The wine region of Oregon
American benchmark for fresh, elegant Pinot Noir. Fine, silky reds with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth and spice, delicate tannins and taut freshness — the closest style to Burgundy outside France. Iconic Willamette Valley on volcanic (Jory) and marine soils. Also precise, mineral Chardonnay, ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), taut Riesling.
The word of the wine: Astringent
Said of a wine that is a bit harsh and rough on the palate. Astringency often appears in young red wines that are rich in tannins and need to be rounded out.
