Bramito del Cervo
Bramito della Sala is produced from the vineyards surrounding the medieval castle at Castello della Sala. The vineyards are on soils rich in fossil deposits with veins of clay that give Chardonnay both minerality and elegance. Part vinified in stainless steel and part in oak barrels with malolactic fermentation, Bramito is characterized by delicate white flower notes followed by light sensations of citrus fruit. The palate is crisp and with a good body, vigorous, and with pleasurable mineral notes which make the finish and aftertaste enjoyably savory. Our favourite every-day wine, it pairs perfectly with seafood and poultry.
Castello della Sala (Antinori)
One of the most imposing pieces of military architecture in Umbria, the Castello della Sala was built in the 14th century by the Monaldeschi family. The terroir around the castle is exceptional for producing white varieties. The vines grow in clay and calcareous based soils, rich in fossil shells. The exposure guarantees plenty of sunlight while the altitude and inland location ensures a good variation in temperature between day and night. Lower, more humid elevations allow for the formation of Botrytis Cinerea (noble rot), and thus the production of Italy’s most famous Sauternes-style dessert wine: Muffato della Sala.
