The Pinot Gris opens up with a nutty, flowering fruit fragrance, along with citrus notes and a hint of bacon. The palate is slightly creamy with nice fruit flavors. The wine has a lively acidity, fine tannins, some mineral notes which then give way to a with creamy tart finish.

Insania is sourced and produced from  renowned German winery Familie Rinklin. The winery is located on the eastern edge of the sunny Kaiserstuhl, that small, volcanic elevation, between the Black Forest and the Vosges. The best conditions for viticulture have been abundant for 2000 years there  or ever since the Romans made the vines native to the area. Family owned and operated, Friedhelm Rinklin is the winemaker and vineyard manager, making sure his farm has been managed organically since 1955! Wife Anne has her hands in nearly all aspects of the winery as well. Together they are noted for producing exceptional wines from Müller-Thurgau, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Muscat, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc. Geoff Tate’s passion for wine and German heritage made this winery a natural fit for this exciting venture.
