Winery | Niccolò Antinori bought the fourteenth-century Castello della Sala in 1940 to provide a source of white wines to match the excellence of his Tuscan reds. With the introduction of Cervaro della Sala in 1987, his dream was fully realized: this is one of Italy’s defining whites, as influential and sought-after as Tignanello. Bramìto is effectively a mini-Cervaro, further proof of Umbria’s affinity with Chardonnay; Conte della Vipera is a full, herbal, Bordeaux-inspired blend of Sauvignon and Semillon. The castle's inhabitants initially ruled over the whole province of Orvieto, so the range would not be complete without a flagship example of that DOC; the ‘Superiore’ designates much lower permitted yields and hence considerable concentration. |
