Country: Italy Region: Veneto Varietal: Pinot Grigio Vintage: 2020 Colour: White Style: Dry Producer: Santa Margherita Santa Margherita pioneered the modern winemaking methods of Pinot Grigio and are proud to be known as a benchmark of quality and innovation for the category. In 1960, our winemaker was inspired by traditional sparkling wine vinification techniques used to ferment Pinot Grigio without skin contact. Driven to capture the delicate fruit and floral notes, he realized that by moving away from the then-standard “Ramato” method, the precious aromas and flavors could be preserved as they were meant to be tasted.  TASTING NOTES With its straw-yellow hue, clean intense aroma, and crisp, well-balanced taste, our Pinot Grigio is as authentic as it is refreshing. For those who love a dry white wine with the delightful aroma of Golden Delicious apples, our signature Pinot Grigio is unparalleled. It will impress even the most astute connoisseurs with its flavorful personality. THE DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE To create our signature varietal, we start with fully ripe Pinot Grigio grapes from our Adige River Valley vineyard in the Italian Alps. The clusters are harvested by hand to ensure they remain whole and retain their delicate aromas and flavors. The grapes are then soft-crushed and carefully fermented in temperature-controlled tanks. Several additional weeks of aging are required to fully develop the wine’s renowned flavor. The wine is then filtered, bottled, and made ready for the most important stop on its journey: the gatherings and glasses of wine lovers like you.
