Winery: Salvadori

The Villa Silvia family owned by the Salvadori family has been working in the wine sector since 1930 when, after the Second World War, founder Cesare Salvadori decided to dedicate his life to the wine sector.

The work of the founder was then continued by his sons Bruno and Giuseppe who increased their activity by trying to improve the quality of the product and passing on their knowledge of father to son.

At present, the company's management is entrusted to Bruno Salvadori, who deals with production, his wife Giuliana who deals with the management and administrative plan, her son Francesco graduated in oenology, and finally her daughter, Silvia, who develops business strategies.

From an agronomic point of view, the land that is affected by this area is predominantly stony, with substantial skeletons, which make poor soil nutrients but excellent for the production of structured wines, capable of maintaining over time and giving the palate a delicious dry flavor , savory, fresh and harmonious.
From a structural point of view it is in keeping with the times, it has a part of the modern winery and a tradition linked to the past.

The Villa Silvia is located in the production area of ​​Chianti, in the hills of Vinci, Leonardo's Country, located in the province of Florence and an area that is distinguished by its beautiful landscapes, artistic, cultural and wonderful wines.

Today the company boasts a wide range of products with a controlled and guaranteed designation of origin and typical geographical indication: Chianti, Chianti Classico, Chianti Classico, Chianti Classico Riserva, Super Tuscany, Tuscan red and white igt, Vermentino, Vernaccia di S. Gimignano .

Ceretto Barbaresco 2021

Ceretto Barbaresco DOCG is made from 100 percent Nebbiolo. 

If we could sum this wine up in a single word, we wouldn’t hesitate to define it as “classic”. As tradition suggests, this Barbaresco is the fruit of the assembly of several parcels of land, coming from some of our most beautiful vineyards. The idea is that of naturally obtaining balance by harmonizing different expressions, often contrasting ones. The result is a liquid expression of a terroir, tempting and typical, a synopsis of one Langa, that of Barbaresco, which moves in the glass, alternating between structure and elegance.


 

Review:

This is a really solid, meaty and mouth-filling Barbaresco that offers vivid red fruit with floral and mineral nuances and hints of licorice and cedar. Medium- to full-bodied with compact, velvety tannins that form the backbone of the wine, showing impressive concentration and length. Drink from 2027.

The latter is a native Tuscan grape variety that was nearly extinct but has experienced a revival through dedicated research and promotion efforts.

Fruity aromas typical of Sangiovese, including black cherry and ripe plum, with violet and complex chocolate and black pepper notes. The palate offers sweet tobacco and balsamic hints, while its balanced structure with refined tannins and lively acidity makes it suitable for extended aging.


Review:

You feel the oak here, suggesting vanilla and clove character, but it’s very well complemented by the dark fruit, ranging from blackberries to mulberries to dark cherries. Full-bodied, dense and decadent with a regal structure and muscular tannin backbone. The acidity cuts nicely through on the long finish and provides freshness. Drink from 2024.
