A production chain model, object of careful university studies for its effectiveness over time, which “has proved to be successful not only in the short term, but for sixty years it has been regulating win-win relationships which at the same time have important effects on the natural environment and on the social and economic stability of the territory: the heritage and the technical skills of families who have been cultivating vines for hundreds of years have not been lost; vineyards have not been abandoned; families have been able to count on certain incomes avoiding the depopulation of fields and the abandonment of villages”, underlines the managing director of Santa Margherita Group. “In this way, we also challenge climate change, being on the front line, through best practices in which tradition has been able to marry sustainable innovation and good practices in the vineyard and cellar, transforming them into concrete daily actions, such as the protection of biodiversity, reforestation, energy production from renewable sources or the implementation - since seven years ago - of the largest “carbon neutrality” program ever carried out by an Italian winery”.

Their flagship wine is the San Clemente Terre di Casauria Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Riserva, aged for 15 months in new barriques, and then a further six months in bottles.

Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio is a white wine based on pure fruit flavors. For this reason, careful handling in the winery is required to avoid oxidation and acidification. Therefore, the grapes are harvested by hand to ensure they remain whole and retain their delicate aromas and flavors. Then, they are de-stemmed, crushed, and pressed to release their juice. Afterward, this juice is carefully fermented in temperature-controlled tanks. Several additional weeks of aging are then required to fully develop the Pinot Grigio characteristic flavor. Finally, the wine is filtered from enzymes and bottled. Where Is Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio Made? It has an intense aroma with strong fruit on the palate, good body and an almost creamy texture.

The 80-year-old wine estate is committed to the needs of the Italian people and employs trending viticultural methods, too. Over 80 years ago, Count Gaetano Marzotto led the revitalization of an abandoned portion of the Venetian countryside. Here, where rivers from the alps cut through the sun-drenched hills on their winding way to the Mediterranean shore, he created much-needed farmlands and restored traditional wine-making in what had been a region of fine vineyards since the time of the Roman Empire. Employing new agricultural science and a commitment to the needs of the Italian people, Marzotto gave this labor of love the name of his dear wife Margherita, and the first piece in the mosaic of Santa Margherita was set.
