Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio 2016, Alto Adige Trentino DOC, Italy: Beautifully balanced and refreshing Italian Pinot Grigio from one of the country's best-known producers of this wine. Santa Margherita was, in fact, the first to make Pinot Grigio back in 1961, and has led the way ever since. Crisp and lively with racy acidity for seafood and shellfish. Also works on its own as a chilled aperitif. Drink: 2017-2021. 106450 12.50% XD 750 mL $19.95 Score: 91/100. November 26, 2019
