The 2022 Antinori Cervaro della Sala IGT, a proprietary blend from the renowned producer Antinori, hails from the Umbria region of Italy. This white wine combines Chardonnay with a small portion of the local grape, Grechetto. It stands out as Marchesi Antinori's top white wine offering.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate awarded the 2022 Cervaro della Sala a commendable score of 94 points. Monica Larner from the publication describes the nose as initially presenting a reductive note of flint or matchstick that quickly dissipates. It then opens up to "soft orchard fruit, white peach and minty apple." Larner notes the presence of delicately applied toasted notes with hints of pecan or macadamia nut, which add complexity to the wine. The wine finishes with "salty mineral notes that underline the extremely vertical or lifted personality of the bouquet."

Larner also mentions that Renzo Cotarella, a key figure in the winemaking process, has implemented tweaks to winemaking in recent years to "slim down the wine and not make it any bigger," despite the hot vintage. This approach has resulted in a wine that remains true to its leaner and meaner blueprint. However, due to its accessible personality, Larner suggests that the 2022 vintage might have a shorter drinking window.

The 2022 Antinori Cervaro della Sala IGT is a white wine that offers a blend of tradition and modern winemaking techniques. Its balanced profile, combining fruit, nutty undertones, and mineral elements, makes it a noteworthy choice for those seeking a high-quality Italian white wine.
