Critic tasting note: "This Cabernet Sauvignon-driven blend maintains a sense of balance with surprisingly lively acidity and muscular tannins. The aromas are a heady mix of cassis, thyme, graphite and steaks grilling over hot coals. The wine feels lively on the palate, with flavors of black currants, dark chocolate and cedar filling the mouth. Enjoy now–2034." - 94/100, Wine Enthusiast

Same variety, two different styles of wine. Within Europe Italian producers generally make the light, crisp wine from the grape and label it as Pinot Grigio. Producers in the Alsace region of France call it Pinot Gris and make a much richer, more developed style. Genetically identical to Pinot Noir, it is thought to have mutated in Burgundy with lighter skins to produce a slightly copper/grey colored fruit. In Germany it goes by a couple of synonyms, Rulander if vinified into a sweet wine and Grauer Burgunder (or Gray Burgundy) if dry. The grape has been exported across much of the New World with particular success in Oregon and New Zealand. Both regions take after the richer Alsation style.
