San Giovanni della Sala Orvieto Classico Superiore is a white wine produced by the Castello della Sala winery, part of the renowned Antinori family. This winery is located in Umbria, specifically in the municipality of Orvieto, an area known for producing high-quality white wines. The Orvieto territory features a temperate climate, with cold winters and hot, dry summers. The soils are mainly clayey and rich in marine fossils, which give the wines a particular minerality. The vineyards of Castello della Sala cover about 500 hectares, at an altitude ranging between 220 and 470 meters above sea level. San Giovanni della Sala Orvieto Classico Superiore is a blend of Procanico, Grechetto, and Traminer grapes. Procanico, the local clone of Trebbiano, provides freshness and liveliness, while Grechetto and Traminer add structure and intense aromas. The wine shows a bright straw yellow color. On the nose, it offers aromas of ripe white fruit, white flowers, and mineral notes. On the palate, it is fresh and well balanced, with a pleasant aromatic persistence. This wine pairs perfectly with fish dishes, crustaceans, and mollusks, but can also be enjoyed with white meats and fresh cheeses. It is also an excellent aperitif thanks to its freshness and liveliness.
