Orvieto Classico Superiore DOC San Giovanni della Sala 2023 Marchesi Antinori

The Orvieto Classico Superiore San Giovanni della Sala di Antinori was born in vineyards located in the land surrounding the Castello della Sala, in Umbria.

It is produced with Grechetto, Procanico, Pinot Bianco and Viognier grapes, harvested entirely by hand starting from the second week of September. Fermentation takes place separately by variety, with part of the grapes subjected to a short cold maceration and the other pressed directly, in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 16 ° C. The wine ages on its lees for a few months in view of the subsequent assembly and bottling.

It has a pale yellow color with greenish reflections. The nose opens with fruity notes of citrus, peach and pineapple. On the palate it is structured and harmonious, with good acidity and a pleasantly lively and persistent finish.

Perfect to accompany seafood first courses and shellfish, this white wine is ideal in combination with fresh cheeses.
