Antinori (Castello della Sala), Cervaro Sala Bianco other_regions_italy mildly warm and youthfully austere2015 was a textbook vintage and this is a great Cervaro. Citrus, cream and white flowers on the nose lead seamlessly onto the palate, where you'll find pear and melon with a touch of under ripe pineapple and cool stone fruits. It has good acidity, minerality and savoury complexity, with excellent balance and a long, sleek, saline finish.
