Something to read until we can find out what language it is. French?

pinot grigio

Normalmente tiene una baya de azul grisáceo, de la que proviene su nombre, pero la uva puede tener una apariencia rosa marronácea o negra o incluso blanca. La palabra "pinot", que significa "piña" en francés

This article in English explains the meaning of the name

The word pinot, which comes from the word meaning "pine cone" in French could have been given to it because the grapes grow in small pine cone-shaped clusters

and the grigio part:

it normally has a grayish-blue fruit, accounting for its name (gris meaning "grey" in French)

Now I'm dying for a glass!
