2015 Cervaro della Sala Chardonnay IGT

Vininformation

95 point, JamesSuckling.com: ”Intense aromas of crushed lime and lemon as well as mineral and flint follow through to a medium body, ultra-precise acid and fruit balance. Long and linear finish. Just a hint of vanilla and cream. Give it a year or two to develop in the bottle but already a beauty.”

93 point, RobertParker.com: "This is a beautiful wine that consistently outperforms vintage variation. In other words, it maintains very high quality despite the many troubles Mother Nature can throw its way... The 2015 Cervaro della Sala is robust and exuberant with bold fruit flavors and soft renderings of roasted almond, Umbrian saffron and spice. I loved the cooler and more delicate 2014 vintage, but I also adore this more powerful version from 2015. Drink 2017 - 2027."

91 point, Wine Spectator: ”Aromatic with lime blossom, white peach and spice notes, this creamy, medium-bodied white layers rich flavors of melon, Meyer lemon zest and toast with a minerally underpinning and firm, finely knit acidity. Long, lasting finish. Chardonnay with Grechetto. Drink now through 2025.”

91 point, Wine & Spirits: "Notes of vanilla, melted butter and toasted hazelnuts give way to flavors of golden apple and lemon curd in this weighty blend of barrel-fermented chardonnay with ten percent grechetto. Lively acidity weaves through the wine, lending freshness and tension to the rich flavors."

Cervaro della Sala er en legendarisk vin i Italien. Det er den eneste vin, der har opnået topscore i samtlige årgange produceret, i den italienske "vinbibel" Gambero Rosso. Duften er meget kompleks med strejf af kamille, flint, tropiske frugter og vanilje. Smagen er fin, smøragtig og velstruktureret med Chardonnay druens fylde og en mineralsk friskhed fra Grechetto druen, der skaber balance. Eftersmagen er uendeligt lang. En stor vin til kraftige fiskeretter med fyldige saucer, lyst kød og modne faste oste.
