TENUTA DI SALVIANO Orvieto Classico Superiore DOC 2019 REGION: Italy / Umbria Orvieto GRAPES: Trebbiano Toscano (Procanico), Grechetto, Verdello, Sauvignon Blanc Tenuta di Salviano was purchased by the Principe Corsini family in the late 17th century. The propety has Ethruscan and Roman descent, in fact the main house on Salviano was a Roman villa and somewhere on the estate is a necropolis. Donna Nerina Corsini married Il Marchese Enrico Incisa della Rocchetta, and their two children Giovanni and Eleonora are now the owners of Tenuta di Salviano. Il Marchese Giovanni Incisa della Rocchetta manages the estate and oversees the winemaking with his wife, La Marchesa Tara. The Orvieto Classico Superiore zone, the heartland of Umbria’s distinct whites, is characterized by higher elevations and cooler temperatures. The vineyards are overlooking Lago di Corbara on the south bank. Soils here are a composite of clay and limestone. Given soils and climatic conditions, whites here are defined by higher aromatics, structure derived from total acids, and freshness. HARVEST NOTE A moderately rainy and cool spring which delayed flowering slightly, followed by a balanced start to summer with occasional high temperatures in July and August. Early September has been enjoying cool nights with occasional rain showers. The production is expected to be slightly decreased for 2019 due to the lack of rain during ripening, but this is still to be determined. TASTING NOTE It has a bright pale yellow color. On the nose it offers sensations of undergrowth such as hawthorn, arbutus, daisies and yellow-fleshed fruits, with echoes of herbs. On the palate it is rounded, the tangy texture and mineral recollections give this wine an unexpected crispy touch.

Four Wines from Central Italy
Four Wines from Central Italy These wines are all from the heart of mainland Italy, roughly halfway between the northern alpine mountains and the southern tip reaching towards Africa. They have been selected to try to show something of the range and diversity of Italian wines and to reflect particular indigenous qualities and traditions. The huge variety of Italian wine is a consequence of over 350 grapes officially granted ‘authorised’ status and a long shoreline and extensive mountains and foothills which provide different altitudes, climates and soil conditions. This selection shows the differences that can be found within a fairly narrow latitudinal range and from a limited number of grape varieties. These differences can be quite pronounced, even from wines made from the same grape. Each wine has been designated either DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata – Controlled Designation of Origin) or DOCG (Denominazione di Origine e Garantita – Controlled and Guaranteed Designation of Origin). The DOG designation system was launched in 1963. Later, the DOCG classification was introduced to provide a top tier of Italian wines. In 2014 there were 332 DOCs and 73 DOCGs. The top level was special because government officials would actually taste the final wines. If they passed the taste test, a band would be affixed around the bottle’s neck to signify approval and prevent anyone tampering with the wine once it had achieved its designation. Within both categories the term ‘Classico’ is used to identify wines produced in the historically oldest part of the designated region according to strict traditional winemaking methods. ‘Classico’ is an indicator of the quality of a wine and suggests that the wine is better than one that does not include this term on its label.

San Giovanni Della Sala
SAN GIOVANNI DELLA SALA Category Orvieto DOC Classico Superiore (controlled appellation) Vintage 2016 Blend Grechetto, Procanico, Pinot Bianco, and Viognier Climate The climate of the 2106 vintage was characterized by a mild winter with regular rainfall followed by a cool spring season which allowed the bud burst and the flowering to take place in a normal fashion. June saw a brief drop in temperatures, leading to a slight slowing of plant growth and development , but which came back to balance in July due to a warm summer with positive temperature swings between daytime heat and evening and nighttime coolness. This led to a wine with an interesting aromatic notes. The harvest of the Grechetto, the Viognier, and the Pinot Blanc for the wine began towards the second half of September and the picking finished with the picking of the Procanico. Fermentation and Aging The grapes were fermented separately, variety by variety.

After the initial rackings, the wine remained on its lees in order to further heighten its structure, elegance, and crispness up until the moment of its blending and then bottling.
