Cervaro della Sala Umbria IGT 2015 Castello della Sala Antinori

The Cervaro della Sala 2015 undergoes fermentation in French oak barriques, followed by about 5–6 months of ageing on the lees with bâtonnage. It is then refined in the bottle before release, enhancing both its elegance and complexity. It shows remarkable elegance and depth. On the nose, it opens with aromas of ripe orchard fruits such as apple and pear, layered with citrus zest, white flowers, and subtle hints of toasted hazelnut and vanilla from oak aging. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet balanced, with a creamy texture supported by vibrant acidity. Notes of ripe stone fruit, lemon curd, and delicate mineral undertones lead to a long, persistent finish with refined complexity. Perfect with seafood dishes such as lobster, scallops, or baked fish, as well as roasted white meats like chicken or veal. It also pairs beautifully with creamy pasta dishes and aged cheeses, where its structure and complexity complement rich flavors.
