Pinot Gris 2020 Bettina Schumann 'Famose Schose A la Pink'
Bettina Schumann refers to this wine as their Chameleon. It is definitely not a Pinot Gris as you know it. This wine is the perfect company for a delicious dinner. You will find either a red shoe or a gold shoe on her labels. Rotschuh-Linie (red shoe line) stands for wines with Trinkfluss (drinking flow). Goldschuh-Linie (gold shoe line) wines are defined by their uniqueness, they are the winery's treasure.
Winehouse Bettina Schumann is a female-run winery known for its burgundy-variety wines in the Kaiserstuhl region. Bettina is the enologist and the soul of the wines. Her wines are best described as herself; independent, powerful, full of character, and a lot of heart, but never aiming to please the crowd. Bettina never leaves the house without her red shoes so it was easy for them to come up with a family crest for the young winery.

Bottled end of July followed by another 12 months of bottle aging before releasing the wine to the market.
