Antinori Cervaro Della Sala 2007
Chardonnay
from Tuscany, Italy
winemaker's notes:
The wine has an intense and complex aroma with notes of citrus, pear, acacia flowers, and hints of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full and well-structured, with sweet notes of butter and hazelnut, while also minerally. This wine will age and develop very well.
"The 2007 Cervaro della Sala (Chardonnay, Grechetto) is an especially fat, juicy version of this wine, with generous ripe fruit and a soft-textured personality. The oak is still rather prominent and the wine needs at least another year of bottle age, although it will always remain a very ripe, opulent, yet beautifully balanced Cervaro." 91 Points
