About this wine

Castello della Sala is a renowned wine producer located in the Umbria region of Italy. With a rich history dating back to the 14th century, this historic estate has been producing exceptional wines for centuries.

The estate's flagship wine, 'Cervaro della Sala', is a true testament to the winemaking expertise and dedication of Castello della Sala. This iconic white wine is crafted using a blend of Chardonnay and Grechetto grapes, resulting in a unique and complex flavor profile.

The production process at Castello della Sala is meticulous and carefully executed. The vineyards are situated at an altitude of 400 meters above sea level, allowing for optimal grape ripening and flavor development. The cool climate and volcanic soil of the region further contribute to the distinct character of the wines produced here.

The grapes used in the production of 'Cervaro della Sala' are hand-harvested and carefully sorted to ensure only the highest quality fruit is used. The Chardonnay grapes bring richness and depth to the wine, while the Grechetto grapes add a refreshing acidity and aromatic complexity.

Once the grapes are harvested, they are gently pressed and the juice is fermented in oak barrels. This aging process imparts subtle oak flavors and enhances the wine's structure and complexity. After fermentation, the wine is aged in the cellar for a minimum of 10 months before being released to the market.

The result is a wine of exceptional quality and elegance. 'Cervaro della Sala' displays a beautiful golden color and offers a bouquet of ripe tropical fruits, citrus, and floral notes. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with a creamy texture and a long, lingering finish.

This wine pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes. Its versatility and complexity make it a favorite among wine enthusiasts and critics alike.

In addition to 'Cervaro della Sala', Castello della Sala also produces a range of other outstanding wines. Their red wines, such as 'Bramito del Cervo' and 'Muffato della Sala', showcase the estate's commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

'Bramito del Cervo' is a delightful white wine made from Chardonnay grapes. It is crisp and refreshing, with notes of citrus and tropical fruits. 'Muff
