PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The 2023 Bramìto della Sala Chardonnay from Antinori's Castello della Sala estate in Umbria is a vibrant expression of Italian winemaking. Sourced from vineyards rich in fossil deposits and clay, this Chardonnay offers a harmonious blend of freshness and complexity.
The grapes underwent a short maceration at low temperatures to enhance flavor extraction. Fermentation occurred in both stainless steel and oak, with only the oak-fermented lots undergoing malolactic fermentation. This approach preserved the wine's freshness while adding depth and complexity.
"A waft of roasted nut on the nose enriches the palate's lively range of steeped apricot, Mandarin orange peel, pastry cream and chamomile notes. Racy acidity gives the complex profile fine definition and carries this on the well-spiced finish. Drink now through 2033." Wine Spectator 91 Points
Marchesi Antinori’s estate in Umbria is a revolutionary force for the region.

Winemaker Renzo Cotarella grew up near Castello della Sala and enjoys a deeply personal relationship to this estate.
