I removed the name "Auvernat Gris" because I couldn't tell if it was the same as "Auvergnat Gris" and couldn't tell whether it referred to Pinot gris ot Pinot Meunier or both (I suspect). Rmhermen 13:56, Oct 13, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Synonyms Table

Is anyone good at making tables? I think that would probably be the best way to present all the various synonyms and different countries. Agne^Cheese/^Wine 22:07, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Well I've heard numerous winemakers discussing how the varietal characters develop late in the berries, often after the sugars are already getting very high. This then leaves a dilemma, make a sweeter wine, or a 'high octane' (15-16%) wine. However, having said that this is the case, it may be more to do with local growing conditions than a universal truth. --Limegreen 09:58, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

• • Sorry, couldn't find any of that in my books. Check the internet. Charleenmerced ^Talk 15:14, 25 March 2007 (UTC)Charleenmerced

I've been trying. I haven't won yet ;) --Limegreen 23:16, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
