Wine Spectator

Alison Napjus

A refined red, with creamy tannins well-meshed with macerated black cherry, plum skin, woodsy herb, spice and mineral flavors. Fresh and focused, offering good length on the finish. Drink now through 2029.

Decanter

The grapes for this wine at Antinori's outpost in Umbria are grown on calcareous soils at 400 metres above sea level. Vinified in conical steel tanks then matured in barriques for several months before bottling, it has a warm earth and baked cherry aroma with lifted nuances of fresh and grilled herbs and balsam. Creamy and rich yet fresh and vertical, it has a powdery texture with a slightly chocolatey background and ripe red and black cherry and spice emerging on the finish. Class.

Jacobo Garcia-Andrade Llamas

Aromas of bright cherries, ripe raspberries, cloves and cedar. The palate is medium-bodied with delicate, evenly distributed red fruit and a silky profile that concludes cleanly and seamlessly. Drink now.

Description

Characteristics and tasting advice for the 2021 Pinot Nero from Antinori - Castello della Sala

Tasting

This Pinot Noir seduces with its brilliant ruby color, its delicate bouquet of red and floral fruits, as well as its elegant palate, with silky tannins and a mineral finish of great length.

A fresh and beautifully complex Italian red wine

The property

In the heart of the Umbria region is the magnificent Castello della Sala Estate of the Antinori Family, a vast 200-hectare property that accurately and authentically showcases the beauty of Italian terroirs and grape varieties.

The vineyard

The Umbria region benefits from a continental Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers, cold winters, moderate rainfall, and significant temperature variations between day and night. The vines are planted on clay-limestone soils rich in fossil shells, promoting the development of native grape varieties and more widespread varieties.

The wine

Produced since 1990, this Pinot Nero from Antinori-Castello della Sala is an Umbria wine made from a 4-hectare vineyard located more than 400 meters above sea level, resting on limestone soils rich in fossils and sedimentary sands dating from the Pliocene.

The grape variety
