New to Berry Bros & Rudd for autumn/winter, Domaine du Gringet is guardian of the rare Gringet grape: only 22ha of this Alpine variety exist in total. Gringet was historically used to make Savoie sparkling wines, but this still version is complex and characterful – reminiscent of Riesling or Furmint. Layered herbal aromatics with notes of spiced pear, dried flowers, hay and mint. The palate is underscored with focused Riesling-like acidity, with preserved citrus fruit, tangerine notes and a stony minerality. Drinking beautifully now, but it will be interesting to see it evolve in bottle.
