Pinot Gris/Grigio, Lighter/Fresh

Look here for your zippy, fresh, aperatif wines, the ones that'll slide down all day without going soft on you. A host of crisp Italian whites and tropical but fresh South African chenins dominate, but beware; there are a couple of epic wines in here! The Savennieres is hauntingly light but immensely intense, and the Schlumberger Kitterlé - well, it's the biggest white wine in the list and should be with the aromatics, but it's a pinot gris so must go here. It's the exception that proves the rule, perhaps.
