She wrote the wine brand down, as pinot grigot.
When i went to the local wine market, they only had pinot grigio. Is there a difference, or is this an alternative spellling?

Pinot grigio is the wine. Its made from the pinot gris grape and is most famous from the north of Italy though other countries make a pinot grigio such as US. Australia and Chile.
The one you have chosen is very expensive in my poor person opinion - if I had money like that to spend on wine personally I would be buying a louis latour chablis.
You can get a good pinot grigio for far less money. This wine isnt considered a 'good' wine - just an easy drinking wine and I've put below a review of it. In the review he mentions some labels for this wine that he found the best - maybe you could take those names down and march into the wine shop and see what price they are?
Hope that helps
EDIT:
I just realised that the price in your link is for a CASE! £6 is perfect for this wine...I thought it was like £40 for a bottle!

You friend wrote the name down incorrectly. It is Pinot Grigio or Pinot Gris depending on the country where it is produced.
I like brands like Luna Vineyards, King Estate for Pinot Grigio.

It's Pinot Grigio, no such thing as Pinot Grigot!!lol
The one you looked at is fine, have tried it before and it's very nice. I'll be your friend if you want to buy me some!!

Pino grigio is the name of a grape, so I would say your friend just made a mistake with her spelling
its an easy wine to drink, nice and light. I like the odd glass or 2, but I prefer red wine, but its just personal preference

Of the pink wines merlot and pinot dry are particularly dry. Cabernet sauvignon has a tendency to be dryer. Very dry Bordeaux wines are in many situations created from a mix of cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, and merlot grapes. Going from sweeter wines to dry isn't unavoidably difficulty-free to transition. Burgundy wines alongside with Beaujolais or consistent with risk an italian Chianti are a competent stepping stones while you at the instant are not used to dry wines.

Your friend spelt it wrong. It is in fact Pinot Grigio.
