Almost everyone on the planet has heard of Chardonnay, in fact it is so popular that some people even name their children after it.

Pinot Grigio Is More Popular Then Ever
By: Mark Hooson

The grape can’t help it – Pinot Grigio is more popular then ever

As summer approaches Pinot Grigio looks set to establish itself as Britain’s favourite grape variety once and for all, having overtaken long-standing favourite Chardonnay in recent months.

Though many wine critics still find it hard to love Pinot Grigio (some still persist in calling it utterly tasteless and a drink for those who don’t like wine!), the majority of wine lovers have been won over by its versatility and downright drinkability!

Part of the appeal is you don’t have to try too hard with this wine – just chill a bottle, crack open and enjoy. The majority of Pinot Grigio wine you find in Britain is made in the traditional Italian style – bone dry with hints of grapefruit and melon. It can be drunk anytime with virtually any fish or white meat.

Although northern Italy is the traditional home of Pinot Grigio, specifically the region north of Venice, it has also been grown in France and Germany for centuries where it goes by the name of Pinot Gris. continue reading
