The byHeinrich Housewine is a white wine blend of Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris with a complex and balanced flavor profile which comes from aging in both steel tanks and French oak barrels.

Varieties:

Pinot Blanc is a white grape variety closely related to Chardonnay and Pinot Gris. It is known for producing wines with aromas of apples, pears and citrus fruits, as well as a hint of minerality. Pinot Blanc wines are generally medium-bodied and have crisp, fresh acidity.

Grauburgunder, or Pinot Gris, is a white grape variety that is also closely related to Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc. It is known for producing wines with aromas of pears, apples and stone fruit, as well as hints of spice and a slightly honeyed or floral character. Pinot Gris wines are generally full-bodied and produce a rich, round palate.

The Housewine byHeinrich cuvée of these two grape varieties produces a white wine with a balanced and complex flavor profile. The fresh citrus and floral aromas combined with a note of stone fruit of the Pinot Blanc harmonize perfectly with the spicy toasty, vanilla and honeyed notes and the full, round mouthfeel, of the Pinot Gris. The wine has hints of oak, butter and vanilla from aging in oak barrels, as well as a crisp acidity that helps balance the flavors and keep the wine fresh and lively. This gives an excellent drinking sensation.

Enjoy at 10 to 12 degrees ideally from a Burgundy glass. It is always recommended to chill at least a 2nd bottle ;-)

The flavors of Housewine byHeinrich go well with grilled seafood such as shrimp, scallops or swordfish.

The Housewine also pairs well with poultry dishes such as roasted chicken or turkey or a creamy pasta.

The smoky notes of grilled fish and meat pair well with an oak-aged Pinot Gris, while the acidity of the Pinot Blanc helps break up the richness of the protein.

Housewine combines equally well with salads and light appetizers, such as mixed green salad with vinaigrette, crudités platters with a dip, or even vitello tonnato.

Housewine byHeinrich and soft cheeses harmonize perfectly, especially creamy cheeses such as Brie or Camembert.
