Antinori – Castello Della Sala Bramito Del Cervo 2023

Description

Antinori Castello della Sala Bramto del Cervo 2023 is a refined Umbrian white wine that reflects both the elegance of Chardonnay and the centuries-old winemaking heritage of the Antinori family. Produced at the historic Castello della Sala estate, located near Orvieto in central Italy, this wine benefits from high-altitude vineyards where the combination of clay-limestone soils, crisp nights, and sunny days provides optimal conditions for crafting expressive and balanced Chardonnay.

The 2023 vintage was marked by favorable weather that allowed the grapes to reach full ripeness while maintaining natural freshness. Vinification involved careful temperature control and a portion of barrel fermentation, adding texture and subtle complexity to the wine. The result is a Chardonnay that highlights both purity of fruit and finesse, embodying the modern yet tradition-rooted style that has made Antinori a benchmark name in Italian winemaking.

The name Bramto del Cervo meaning the roar of the deer pays homage to the wild beauty of the surrounding Umbrian countryside. As a younger sibling to the estates flagship Cervaro della Sala, Bramto is crafted for earlier enjoyment while still carrying the pedigree and elegance of Castello della Sala. Its combination of freshness, richness, and terroir-driven identity makes it one of Italys most recognized and reliable Chardonnays.
