An authentic Pinot Grigio from the home of the variety in northern Italy, Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio is pale straw-yellow in colour with a clean, intense aroma and dry flavour with pleasant golden apple aftertaste. It is a Pinot Grigio of great character and versatility.

Beautiful colour for starters. Deep russet-amber-crimson. Richly autumnal. It all goes from there. Flint, woodsmoke, graphite, potato skins, scorched dry pears, spice notes and no doubt more. Excellent intensity and the length to match. Skin-sy and stalky. A treat in its style.

"Spicy ripe pear lychee and spice characters sit within a frame of creamy yoghurt-like complexity. A fine dry, restrained palate with subtle hints of stone fruit, ripe red apples and figs. Showing the influence of limestone, it is a wine of complexity, of palatal weight yet delicacy, handling the higher alchol without it dominating in any way; a fine balance of acid with minimal residual sugar. Drink now or cellar for up to 3-4 years to discover the secondary flavours maturation will bring.
