Conte della Vipera 2023 – Antinori’s Iconic White Wine from Castello della Sala

The Antinori Castello della Sala Conte della Vipera 2023 is a premium Italian white wine that exemplifies elegance, vibrancy, and terroir expression. Produced by the renowned Marchesi Antinori estate, this sophisticated blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes hails from the historic Castello della Sala estate in Umbria, just a stone’s throw from the Tuscan border.

This vintage showcases a straw yellow colour with delicate greenish reflections and golden undertones. On the nose, the wine opens with intense aromas of lychee, pineapple, passion fruit, and freshly zested grapefruit, offering an enticing bouquet that is both exotic and refined.

On the palate, the Conte della Vipera 2023 reveals a lively freshness and balanced vibrancy, underpinned by a precise saline minerality typical of Umbrian soils. The dry, crisp texture (1.6 g/l residual sugar) is harmoniously supported by a bright acidity (5.62 g/l) and a rounded pH of 3.22. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of citron peel and ripe pineapple, delivering a clean, structured, and persistent flavour profile.

Niccolò Antinori bought the fourteenth-century Castello della Sala in 1940 to provide a source of white wines to match the excellence of his Tuscan reds. With the introduction of Cervaro della Sala in 1987, his dream was fully realized: this is one of Italy’s defining whites, as influential and sought-after as Tignanello. Bramìto is effectively a mini-Cervaro, further proof of Umbria’s affinity with Chardonnay; Conte della Vipera is a full, herbal, Bordeaux-inspired blend of Sauvignon and Semillon. The castle's inhabitants initially ruled over the whole province of Orvieto, so the range would not be complete without a flagship example of that DOC; the ‘Superiore’ designates much lower permitted yields and hence considerable concentration.
