Santa Margherita 2020 Pinot Grigio (DOC), $17.99-$24.99, 92 points, was a pale brass color with a broad graying penumbra.
Aromas were a cornucopia of tropical fruit, notably pineapple, and nuanced with green melon, bees wax, and subtle citrus notes.
A light-bodied dry white wine with bright acidity (outstanding) and tangy flavors of lemon/lime, ginger, and a refreshing wash of not quite ripe watermelon.
Finished long on the trailing palate, pomelos, and a well-balanced 12.5% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with my fried Ipswich clams.
I was recently very disappointed with the Banfi 2020 PG, but very pleasantly surprised with the Santa Margherita!
