DRINK OF THE WEEK
15th June 2026
Deluxe Pinot Grigio/Gris Rosé
Lidl £6.99
Drinker Rating 90
I love this wine but if you're out shopping for it be aware that it's got two names, sometimes it's labeled up as Pinot Gris and sometimes Pinot Grigio.
We're talking about different names for the same grape but more usually the wines produced with it in New Zealand are labeled Gris - and there is a slight stylistic difference.
Gris wines of NZ and Alacasce tend to have a bit more body, character and depth than Italian Grigios - as is the case here whatever it's called.
Floral, ripe and refreshing and astonishing value at under £7.
Cheers!
