Description
Masterfully crafted by the house of Antinori on estate vineyards, the 2022 Castello della Sala Bramìto Chardonnay is a unique expression of the cool Umbrian microclimate. It offers a pitch-perfect balance of freshness and complexity, with aromas of green apple, citrus blossom, and subtle hints of vanilla from gentle oak aging. On the palate, it delivers vibrant minerality reminiscent of a fine white Burgundy, complemented by creamy textures and a lively acidity that carries through to a long, elegant finish. It's a refined yet approachable Chardonnay with a distinctly Italian flair.

Rich and savory in the glass, the 2022 Bramìto della Sala slowly opens to show hints of young peach and apricot, crushed rocks and hints of cardamon. This is silky yet lifted in feel with ripe white pit fruits complemented by hints of vanilla bean and lemon custard. The 2022 finishes with admirable length and potency, as a bump of residual acidity maintains a lovely freshness. Bramìto della Sala remains one of the best values in Italian Chardonnay.
