Villa Fidelia Bianco Sportoletti: The Shelter of the Soul among the Umbrian Hills
Nestled among the green splendors of the hills of Spello and Assisi, the Villa Fidelia Bianco Sportoletti is an emotional journey through the unique scents and flavors of Umbria. Leggi di più

The grapes, cultivated with love and dedication on sun-kissed soils at an altitude of 400-500 meters, tell the story of a wine enveloped in the enchantment of the Umbrian landscape.

The Terroir of Beauty
The soil, with its medium-textured composition tending toward sandy, gives the vines perfect permeability. The roots, sinking deep down, feed on the geological history of these lands, creating an indissoluble bond between the mother rock and the fruit of the winemaking art. The Dance of the Seasons
The harvest, which began after Ferragosto with Chardonnay and followed by Grechetto in early September, is the magical moment when nature offers itself generously to the hand of man. The grapes, harvested with care and respect, carry with them the story of the entire life cycle, from bud to ripe bunch.

The Heart of Vinification

The grapes, vinified separately to enhance their aromatic characteristics, are transported to the winery and immediately destemmed. Through the use of dry ice, the temperature is quickly lowered, allowing optimal aromatic extraction and protecting the grapes from oxidation. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in French oak barrels, where the wine finds its haven of maturation and complexity.

The Harmony of Refinement

After months of resting on its lees, the wine finds its full expression in the bottle, where it rests for at least a year. The result is a straw yellow with green-gold highlights, which gives the nose aromatic notes of honey, hazelnut, butter and vanilla, caressed by delicate nuances of pink grapefruit and exotic fruit. In the mouth, it reveals a pleasant density and persistence, with a rich, balsamic finish that envelops the soul in an embrace of authentic beauty.

White Wine Territory, Where Time Stands Still
Antinori Castello della Sala is located in Umbria, a short distance from the Tuscan border, about 18 kilometers from the historic city of Orvieto. Leggi di più

Castello della Sala, a magnificent medieval manor with 600 hectares (1482 acres) of land 200 (495 acres) of which are planted with vineyards, is located halfway between the Paglia river and the summit of Monte Nibbio.

History

Castello della Sala was built in 1350 by Angelo Monaldeschi della Vipera whose family arrived in Italy in the IX century following Charlemagne’s troops.
The 1300’s marked the beginning of a long series of conflicts between family members in order to gain control over Orvieto. In 1437 Gentile, grandson of Angelo dei Monaldeschi della Vipera, gained control of the city and reigned as dictator for over a decade. Following Gentile’s death in 1466, a peaceful period started at the castle, culminating with the reconciliatory marriage of Gentile’s son, Pietro Antonio della Vipera, and his cousin Giovanna Monaldeschi della Cervara. The XVI century introduced a period of serenity: the citizens of Orvieto respected Pietro Antonio. Giovanna della Cervara began restoration work on Castello della Sala and commissioned a fresco in the chapel of the Three Wise Men at the entrance to the castle. The couple also became patrons of the magnificent Duomo of Orvieto and made contributions for the paintings done by Signorelli in the Capella Nuova. Pietro Antonio died in 1516 and following her husband’s wishes Giovanna donated Castello della Sala and its land to the Opera Pia Santa Maria otherwise known as the Duomo of Orvieto.

The castle belonged to the Duomo up until 1860 when the newly unified Italian government seized all church property after which it had a series of private owners. In 1940 Marchese Niccolò Antinori, Piero’s father, bought the estate fully aware of the fact that the area held great potential for producing fine white wines. After years of neglect, Castello della Sala moves towards a period of rebirth.
