Step 1: Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and stir to dissolve the sugar. Remove from heat and add the basil sprigs, lemon zest and orange zest. Let stand until it cools to room temp. Discard the basil and peels.
Step 2: Measure out half of the syrup and pour it into a pitcher. (Save the other half for another round or another use). Add the bottle of Pinot Grigio, brandy and orange juice.
Step 3: Pour the sangria into ice-filled glasses and top off with some cold club soda. Garnish each one with an orange slice, and a sprig of basil if you have any left.
