The Protero Pinots is a blend of Pinot Gris, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir, but this is definitely a white wine - and a really attractive one at that.
It's essentially a Pinot Gris with a bit of extra stuffing. Steve Pannell has posed the question "why can't we take Pinot Gris seriously?", and through this release he aims to remind us why it deserves a place in our glasses.
Very floral and herby, a spring walk in the garden type of wine. Nice detail and length with some chalky tannin evident.
