Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio

Italy in the glass. This is the pinot grigio Canadians keep buying.

White fruit, a nutty note and pear show on the card. A Mediterranean salad or grilled chicken is the food idea. Alcohol is 12.5 percent, and sugar is only 2 grams per litre in the 750 ml bottle.

The group started in 1935 with Count Gaetano Marzotto. Its vineyards sit in the Eastern Veneto, Conegliano-Valdobbiadene and Alto Adige. This bottle's made-in line is Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy, with a DOC mark.

The listing calls it carbon neutral. The price was $21.95. The half bottle is a different pack.
