Excellent wine. Intense ruby red color, full, elegant bouquet with hints of cherry, soft and voluminous flavor. In the ancient tradition of the Montefalco area, after having selected the grapes for the production of Montefalco Sagrantino, all the other red varieties were picked for the composition of a fresher and easy-to-match wine. Scacciadiavoli is inspired by this tradition and perfects it by adding that touch that makes this wine even more lovable.
This sweet wine has a unique style. The red color is impenetrable, the scent evokes blackberries, dried fruit and cinnamon, the taste is of a singular balance. In fact, the dense texture of tannins imprisons acidity and sweetness and everything is confused, creating a gustatory sensation of harmonious fullness. It is thanks to the drying of Sagrantino grapes on racks that such a concentration is obtained. Originally Sagrantino grapes were used only for the making of this sweet wine, drunk on the occasion of religious ceremonies in the villages of the area.
The Sagrantino vine, cultivated for centuries exclusively in Montefalco, seems to have been brought there from Asia Minor by the followers of S. Francesco.

That the Trebbiano Spoletino grape is of high enological interest is now a certain fact. It is an ancient vine that has only recently been rediscovered. It can be grown in the territory of Spoleto and Montefalco. In our cellar we have aimed to capture the finer and at the same time intriguing soul of this grape. We have given space to its changing and original aromas with a vinification in amphora that respects these characteristics and then we have strengthened its expressive character with an aging in untoasted wood and amphora for at least 9 months. In our opinion the result is that of a great white wine for aging, capable of surprising at every sip for its richness of facets.

Produced since 1990 exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, it is, in a certain sense, the "alter ego" of Cervaro: together they represent the two different expressions of the complex and refined soul of Castello della Sala. The 4 hectares of vineyards from which it is produced are located at over 400 meters above sea level on calcareous soils rich in fossils with sands of sedimentary origin dating back to the Pliocene.

The Tonda Preview is an anticipation of what will be the Vigna Tonda, a cru that we will make with similar techniques but whose grapes will come exclusively from our “round vineyard”; a vineyard already present in the first map of the estate dated 1902, and which a few years ago we decided to replant in its characteristic circular shape following the features of this ancient design. Replanting still too recent to be able to consider ready the fruits for the wine we want to propose.

Cervaro della Sala is clearly a white out of the box even in the tasting phase. At the sight it appears of a straw yellow with greenish hues. The nose is complex and broad: exotic fruit, citrus, and toasted notes of vanilla and butter deriving from aging in wood. In the mouth the important body is accompanied by a freshness and acidity that end in a long and persistent finish. A good white now and also in 15 years.
The Muffato del Castello della Sala, one of the estates of the Marchesi Antinori , is a bright and persuasive sweet wine.

In the territory of Montefalco, the olive groves or "sluices" are located in the highest and richest soil, particularly suited for the cultivation of olives. (Altitude 400 meters above sea level South exposure). The organic cultivation of olive groves does not allow the use of chemical fertilizers or synthetic pesticides.
Dedicated to Donna Plautilla A. ancestor of our family who lived in the second half of the eighteenth century (1759-1809) and dedicated to all the women of Montefalco, the true guardians of the Sagrantino Passito tradition. The women were entrusted with the task of detaching the Sagrantino grapes from the stalks, the “sbacatura” for the subsequent vinification and it was a job that was done by the fire after dinner, in the cold evenings of late autumn. Images of true poetry for a wine that is itself poetry. The harvest of Sagrantino destined for drying takes place in the first days of October and is very meticulous. The clusters are treated with extreme care because they absolutely must not break, they are placed in small boxes whose bottom is covered with a layer of vine leaves (vine leaves). Only suitable bunches are harvested, those with the most sparse berries that can better withstand the long drying period on the “Camorcanne”, racks where the bunches are placed side by side, without overlapping. The drying can last even more than two months, depending on the weather conditions. Once the right sugar content is reached, the vinification is the same as for other wines: temperature control, frequent pumping over, racking, soft pressing and racking. The final wine yield is very low, only 35% of the initial quantity of grapes. Unlike the Rosso and the dry Sagrantino it does not age in wood, but in steel barrels for a period of thirty-six months. Then follows the refinement in the bottle. The bottles produced are all numbered by hand.
