Conte della Vipera 2022 - Castello della Sala - Antinori

When it comes to Italian wine and its excellence, Antinori is certainly one of the most important families, which has contributed with its history and passion, passed down through 26 generations, to raising the quality of wines to a higher level. A dynasty that over the decades has become almost an empire, and which has expanded its borders beyond Tuscany, to reach Umbria with the Castello della Sala estate. It rises a few kilometers from Orvieto and extends over approximately 500 hectares of land, from which this “Conte della Vipera” Castello della Sala Antinori comes to life, a blend with an international scope capable of always playing the part of the protagonist.

The “Conte della Vipera” is a white wine resulting from a skilful union between international vines, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, which are grown within the vineyards of the Castello della Sala estate, located on soils rich in fossils at a height between 250 and 350 meters above sea level. After harvesting, the bunches are softly pressed, and the must ferments at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks, where it then remains to refine until bottling.
