TN: German Pinot Gris

With pork chops, caprese salad,and a green salad the 2007 Keller Grauburgunder Trocken (Rheinhessen). On minerally end of the Pinot Gris specturm, though there is a solid body of white peach and spiced pear fruit. Dry, medium-bodied, good acidity,good finish. This was one of those wines I occasionally run into that does everything right- but still doesn't really push my buttons. I think I'm Pinot Gris/Grigio challenged, I seldom love one (with the exception of a couple of Alsace SGNs). This is as good a dry PG as I've had, but still can only muster up enthusiasm to B level. I'm guessing others will like more.

Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.

I haven't had any German Pinot Gris just Alsatian. I didn't even know they made them. Are they similar in taste profile?
