Description
This winery's name honours the Monaldeschi della Cervara family, who was the historical owner of Castello della Sala in the 16th century. The wine itself, made by the iconic Marchesi Antinori and first produced in 1985, blends Chardonnay with the indigenous Grechetto grape and is one of the first Italian white wines to have malolactic fermentation and maturation take place in oak barriques. Look for an elegantly robust wine showing crunchy orchard fruit.

Tasting Notes
(Translated from the German) Bright, pale straw yellow with light green notes. Initially presents itself quite playfully on the nose with aromas of banana, peach and mango, then becomes increasingly complex, some flint and anise. Juicy on the palate, shows beautiful yellow fruit notes, racy, well-integrated acidity, gives liveliness, subtle smoky notes on the finish, salty, still seems very young. Score - 94.
