Antinori's most popular white restaurant wine is this amazing Chardonnay. Made in the Burgundy style and also known as 'Baby Cervaro'.

This 100% Chardonnay from the famous Super Tuscan producer Antinori is a golden-yellow wine with a bouquet of summer fruit and a pure Chardonnay character, with lovely hints of vanilla. The taste is soft, with a beautiful balance and a refined structure. The vines (100% Chardonnay) are planted at an altitude of 200 to 400 meters. The soil type is primarily clay with fossils. After harvesting, the first fermentation of the wine takes place in steel tanks, under a controlled temperature of a maximum of 10°C. After a few hours of fermentation, the must and skins are transferred to French oak barriques for further fermentation and aging. After 5-7 months, the wine is ready to be bottled.

The name Bramito means 'the roar of the stag in the rutting season'. Cervo is the Italian word for stag. Cervara was the nickname of one of the Monaldeschi family members who held sway over Castello della Sala around 1300.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving Deze goudgele Bramito Chardonnay toont frisse aroma’s van perzik, Golden Delicious en tropisch fruit met verfijnde tonen van amandel, vanille en een zesteachtige mineraliteit die zorgt voor een zijdezachte maar levendige smaakbalans. De frisse zuurtegraad en het subtiele houtgebruik snijden door rijke sauzen en smeuïge texturen, waardoor de wijn prachtig samengaat met gevogelte zoals geroosterde kip met citroen of kip in lichte roomsaus, met witte vis of gegrilde zalm en met schelpdieren zoals licht gebakken coquilles of ceviche; ook past hij goed bij romige pasta’s en bij milde Thaise of Indiase gerechten, waarbij bereidingen als pocheren, grillen of zacht roosteren de fruitige en minerale elementen extra laten spreken.

More information about Antinori

Marquis Piero Antinori is in charge and is assisted by his three daughters: Albiera, Allegra and Alessia. Funny those three A's. We are not going to bother you with all the awards that have been received over the years, because then this price list can no longer go through the letterbox. There are two red wines that are available on allocation and that one would like to get a few bottles from all over the world and that are Tignanello and Solaia and we also have these in our range at Grandcruwijnen.

In 1180, Ugo and Antinori di Rinuccino were officially named as owners of Castello di Combiate; a century later, the family who had moved to Florence were included in the register of the silk trade cooperative. In 1385, Giovanni di Piero, an indirect descendant, entered the wine guild as an apprentice. Since then, the wine-growing tradition of the Antinori family has been continuous. With the establishment of the Marchesi Antinori winery, the peak was reached in 1895 and already in 1898 the winery was built in San Casciano Val di Pesa, which is still the center of the widely branched group of properties in all major cultivation areas of Tuscany, Umbria. , Piemonte (since the early 90s through the purchase of the wine cellar Prunotto), Apulia and even California. The traditional house participating in the modern Tuscan wine-growing revolution owes much of its prestige to its former chief vinologist Giacomo Tachis, who produced exceptional wines such as Sassicaia, Tignanello (especially sangiovese), Solaia (especially cabernet) and many others. the other was responsible. Vinologist Renzo Cotarella also created one of the best chardonnays in Italy in the Umbrian Castello della Sala.
