Winemaking

The vinification cellar was designed to take full advantage of gravity flow, a concept that allows harvested berries and fermentation processes to be handled as gently as possible without using mechanical pumps. The grapes are harvested in the early morning hours to preserve the purity of the fruit and protect it from elevated daytime temperatures. The must, which has undergone maceration on the skins at a temperature of 10°C for about four hours, is first transferred by gravity-flow into tanks for decantation and clarification, then transferred into barriques where alcoholic fermentation occurs, followed by malolactic fermentation. In February, Chardonnay is ready to be transferred back into stainless steel vats and blended with Grechetto, which was fermented separately and did not age in oak. Subsequently, Cervaro della Sala aged in the bottle for several months in Castello della Sala’s historic cellars before being released.   

Numele vinului onorează familia Monaldeschi della Cervara, care a fost proprietarul istoric al Castello della Sala în secolul al XVI-lea. Un amestec de struguri Chardonnay și o cantitate mică de Grechetto, Cervaro della Sala este unul dintre primele vinuri albe italiene care au trecut prin fermentație malolactică, iar maturarea are loc în barriques. Ideea din spatele acestui vin a fost aceea de a crea un vin alb capabil să se maturizeze în timp. În 1985, Renzo Cotarella, care era enolog șef la Castello della Sala la acea vreme, a realizat primul vintage de Cervaro della Sala.
