This Orvieto Classico DOC Superiore in magnum format from Castello della Sala, by Marchesi Antinori, offers a balanced reading of the territory without showiness. In the glass it displays a bright straw-yellow colour and a personality that favors freshness and harmony; the aromatic profile moves between notes of white-fleshed fruit, citrus and light floral hints, while on the palate it feels saline and shows good persistence. The structure suits the magnum format, intended for a gradual opening of aromas over time.

It pairs naturally with seafood starters, first courses featuring fish, white meats and fresh cheeses; it is also well suited to convivial moments and for those seeking a wine with character that is not overpowering. The product is presented in a wooden case and in magnum format, a detail that enhances its presence at the table or as a gift idea. Storage in a cool place and serving at a moderate temperature are recommended.
