How to serve it
Tasting notes
Pale gold. Aromas of ripe pear, melon and almond with a light honeyed note. The palate is dry and rounded, with the fuller body and softer acidity typical of Pinot Gris, a smooth, slightly textured mouthfeel and a gentle, nutty finish.
About this wine
Istar Pinot Gris comes from Bononia Estate, a winery working near Vidin in the far north-west of Bulgaria, the country's most northerly wine-growing area on the Danube. Pinot Gris is a grey-skinned mutation of Pinot Noir, which explains its fuller body and softer acidity compared with other white varieties.
The wine shows a profile of pear, melon and almond with a light honeyed note. It is dry and rounded, with gentle freshness and a smooth, textured palate that makes it an easy companion at the table.
Serve at 10–12 °C with white meat, fish or soft cheeses.
