Castello della Sala Pinot Nero della Sala 2023

Pinot Nero della Sala is Castello della Sala’s elegant take on Pinot Noir, bringing a refined Italian expression from the cool hills of Umbria. Crafted by the Antinori family, it combines delicacy, precision, and subtle complexity in a style that reflects both the estate’s modern outlook and its long winemaking heritage.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby color with a transparent, luminous edge. The bouquet is graceful and layered, often leaning toward red cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, and a gentle earthy spice, with a touch of forest floor and fine herbal nuance. On the palate, it is usually silky and finely structured, with fresh red fruit, lively acidity, and supple tannins that give the wine shape without weight. The finish is clean and persistent, making it enjoyable in its youth while also giving it the balance to develop additional nuance over the next few years.

Production
This wine comes from Castello della Sala in Umbria, where the estate’s cooler elevated sites help preserve the freshness and aromatic precision that Pinot Noir needs. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, then vinified with careful extraction to maintain finesse and varietal character before maturation that emphasizes purity rather than overt oak influence.

Food & Serving
A versatile food wine, it pairs well with roast poultry, duck breast, mushroom risotto, veal, and lightly seasoned game dishes. Serve it slightly cool, around 14–16°C, and consider a brief decant if the wine is especially young to help the aromatics खुल up more fully.

Producer
Castello della Sala is the Umbria estate of the historic Antinori family, one of Italy’s most respected wine names. The estate is known for producing refined, terroir-driven wines that highlight the region’s cooler climate and limestone-rich soils, with a strong reputation for quality and innovation across both white and red wines.
