James Suckling: 97 Points

This is very aromatic and lifted with mineral, nougat, floral, and lightly cooked apples. Some flint and matchstick. Medium- to full-bodied with a fine phenolic and acid backbone that energizes the wine. Complex aftertaste with subtle fruit and pastry at the end. This will age beautifully but hard not to drink now.

Wine Advocate: 96 Points

This wine is mostly Chardonnay with about 7% Grechetto. The presence of the Grechetto has declined quite a bit over the past couple of vintages. Given these tweaks to the winemaking formula, the 2021 Cervaro della Sala promises an exceptionally crisp and linear presentation with salty mineral tones, lots of stone fruit and tart apple. No malolactic fermentation or oak is used on the Umbrian grape that always adds a hint of rusticity and Umbrian authenticity. However, the Chardonnay is fermented in oak and aged in both new and used barrel.

Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points

 Warmed, spiced apple slices with fresh cream, vanilla and honey aromas waft from the glass of this heady Umbrian Chardonnay. Rich, with bold flavors showcasing roasted orchard fruits and sweet spices from the time in oak flow alongside notes of crème fraiche and whipped butter finishing with an acidity that keeps the wine right where it needs to be.
