Markus Schneider Pinot Gris

The Markus Schneider Pinot Gris from the Palatinate is a white wine for those seeking freshness and depth in a glass – without compromise. Markus Schneider is one of the most exciting winemakers in the Palatinate, and his Pinot Gris perfectly embodies this: masterful craftsmanship paired with a genuine feel for the grape variety.

In the glass, it shines a bright greenish-yellow. The nose opens with aromas of fresh apples, ripe pears, and a hint of pineapple , underpinned by delicate citrus freshness and a subtle honey note. On the palate, it impresses with lively acidity, mineral depth, and a long, clean finish – characteristics that result from the different vineyard sites: loamy soils impart body and a smooth texture, while limestone-rich higher elevations contribute tension and freshness.

Ready to drink now, with potential for the next few years. Especially good with:

• Fried sea bream or pike-perch fillet with herb butter
• Creamy pasta dishes with mushrooms or truffles
• Poultry in a light sauce and mild cheeses

Served at 10–12 °C, it unfolds its full spectrum of aromas. A Burgundy-shaped glass with a sufficiently wide bowl gives it the space it deserves.
