Castello della Sala | Antinori

From Castello della Sala, located not far from Orvieto at an altitude of 500m, come without exception excellent wines, as already proven by the inexpensive "entry-level wine" San Giovanni della Sala. The wine is produced on the vineyards of the ancient castle of Castello della Sala from the combination of the autochthonous grape varieties Grechetto and Procanico with Pinot Bianco and Viognier and interprets the Orvieto Classico in a new style. Its freshness, richness and balance are remarkable, with notes of yellow flowers, green apple, sage and ginger. On the palate, an incredibly silky texture and juicy acidity lead this succulent white into a beautiful, mineral finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Rich, beautifully balanced bouquet with notes of kumquats. On the palate, yellow stone fruit, graphite, minerals and a delicate vanilla note. This fresh white is already elegant, balanced, full-bodied and persistent on the palate, further bottle ageing will round it off fully. SUPERIORE.DE

Fine late harvest from the house of Antinori: Complex fragrance and silky taste with aromas of sweet, juicy peaches, ripe pears, jasmine, caramel and honey. Muffato della Sala is one of Italy's most famous and delicious sweet wines. SUPERIORE.DE

For many years, Castello della Sala has been delivering one of Italy's most famous white wines, the Cervaro. In recent years, it has become fresher and at the same time deeper, without the conservative, broad style that still characterised older late harvest editions of this wine. On the nose, apple compote, cream, notes of oak bark, mango and peach. On the palate, full of tropical fruits with a fine vein of acidity and precise mineral components. A long-lasting, beautiful white and every year rightly one of the most sought-after white wines in the wine world. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, light straw yellow with slight green notes. Initially quite playful on the nose, banana, peach and mango, then becomes increasingly complex, some flint and anise. Juicy on the palate, shows beautiful yellow fruit notes, racy, well-integrated acidity, gives liveliness, discreet smoky notes in the final, salty, still seems very young." Falstaff

"Complex nose of toast, charred pineapple, green papaya, kaffir lime and lemon. Crushed stones and white pepper, too. Full-bodied with vibrant acidity. Textured. Long and layered. Delicious and concentrated." James Suckling
