This wine is mostly Chardonnay with about 7% Grechetto. The presence of the Grechetto has declined quite a bit over the past couple of vintages. Given these tweaks to the winemaking formula, the 2021 Cervaro della Sala promises an exceptionally crisp and linear presentation with salty mineral tones, lots of stone fruit and tart apple. No malolactic fermentation or oak is used on the Umbrian grape that always adds a hint of rusticity and Umbrian authenticity. However, the Chardonnay is fermented in oak and aged in both new and used barrel

Tasting Notes:
Appearance: The wine is light straw yellow with greenish hues, indicating its freshness and vibrancy.

Nose: The aroma is inviting, with prominent notes of slight smoky cedar, flint, Spanish broom, and mimosa blossoms.

Palate: The flavor is well-balanced and complex, featuring notes of vanilla, lemon butter, and small pastries. It has a vibrant and fresh palate with excellent fruit flavors and well-balanced acidity

Finish: The finish is long and elegant, with persistent fruit flavors and smooth tannins.

Overall: Antinori Cervaro Della Sala 2022 has outstanding aging potential but can be enjoyed immediately. It pairs well with light seafood dishes, salads, or fresh cheeses. Its vibrant, fruity, and fresh profile makes it a standout choice for white wine lovers
