Castello di Ama Chianti Classico 2021

32 units available online.
Product description

Ama is an old, fortified village situated near Radda and Gaiole in the heart of the Chianti Classico region. The Castello or Castle of Ama is surrounded by the beautiful Tuscan countryside and is near some of the original, noble families of the Chianti region. The meticulously cultivated vineyards are privy to optimal exposures and consist of fertile soils.

Bright ruby red. Aromas of violet, redcurrant cherries and strawberries. A fragrant and harmonic palate with well-balanced fruity notes, polished tannins and fresh acidity. Fruity and harmonic, the voluptuous Ama Chianti Classico expresses all the elegance of the estate’s wines.

93 Points - James Suckling

Crushed red berries, flowers, bark and fresh mushrooms. Complex nose. Medium-bodied with fine and firm tannins that run the length of the wine. Chewy yet polished and fine. Juicy at the end with some crunchiness.

90 Points - Decanter

Castello di Ama’s just-bottled annata features lifted aromas of violet, lilac and blood orange. Crafted with young-vine Sangiovese between 10 and 12 years old, it is padded out with a dash of Merlot which lends a touch of plushness to the streamlined, sleek red cherry fruit. The graceful palate is smoothly textured, with an appealing chalkiness on the finish.
