    Nibbio is a truly outstanding Chardonnay, hand-picked from a vineyard of just over one hectare on Monte Nibbio in Umbria, which is situated at a lofty height of 520 metres above sea level and belongs to the Castello della Sala estate. The site has cool north-eastern exposures and dense forests at lower altitudes that insulate the temperature. It is the second vintage of the latest passion project of Piero Antinori and his famous OenologistRenzo Cotarella. Nibbio combines Antinori's winemaking traditions with the unique characteristics of the terroir and follows on seamlessly from the path taken 35 years ago with Cervaro della Sala.

    Nibbio della Sala is characterised by a finely defined, very Burgundian style and the characteristic mineral properties of the vineyard site. Lively and elegant bouquet with flint, white apricots, green pears, hazelnuts, lemons, green tea and a hint of toast. Full on the palate, yet elegant and refined, with bright acidity, polished phenolics and a silky, structured and lively DNA and great length. Nibbio is perhaps the most perfect and captivating Chardonnay in Italy and already promises wonderful further ageing. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Intense, sparkling straw yellow colour with a clear green hue. Complex and inviting on the nose, opening with notes of flint and iodine, then lots of grapefruit, some fresh pineapple and white peach. Extremely supple in the attack and on the palate, good interplay between cool and Mediterranean notes of orange peel, pineapple and white peach, present but well-integrated acidity that gives the wine juiciness and tension, flows for a long time, fine mineral notes on the final." Falstaff

    "Soft and round, but also fresh, with flavours of light yoghurt and hints of wood and pie crust. With air, it really opens up to reveal hazelnuts, stone, cooked apples and gunpowder. Extremely long and full of flavour. A great white with soul. A Chardonnay from a single vineyard of 1.5 hectares." James Suckling
