A unique blend for this region, the wine shows vibrant floral and fruit aromas. The palate is round, lush and elegant with hints of vanilla, citrus and apple.

Salviano’s vineyards benefit from limestone soils, optimal southern and southwestern sun exposure and cooling lakeside winds, which result in an ideal winegrowing climate and fruit that has full flavor and well-balanced acidity. All the grapes are hand harvested to preserve freshness. The Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc grapes are vinified separately. The chilled and clarified must is fermented in oak barriques with lees contact before the wines are blended and bottled.

Food pairing

Pairs well with grilled seafood or poultry and a variety of cheeses.

Producer

Nestled among Umbria’s rolling hills on the southern bank of Lake Corbara, the Salviano property is owned by Marchesa Nerina Corsini Incisa della Rocchetta, whose family crafts the legendary Sassicaia, and is run by her sons, Piero and Giovanni.
