The Orvieto Classico Superiore 'San Giovanni della Sala' by Castello della Sala Antinori is a fresh and balanced white wine, produced with the contribution of Grechetto, Procanico, Pinot Bianco and Viognier grapes. The short aging in steel guarantees great freshness and flavour. Aroma and taste refer to fruity notes of peach, apple and lime with an almond and floral finish.
