ABOUT THE WINE


Castello di Ama is an ancient estate located in the hills of Chianti, in Tuscany, Italy. It is situated near the town of Gaiole in Chianti, in the province of Siena. The castle is surrounded by beautiful vineyards and olive groves and is renowned for the production of high-quality wines. Castello di Ama is known for its production of Chianti Classico, a traditional red wine from the Chianti region. The estate spans over 250 hectares, with approximately 90 hectares dedicated to vineyards.
The 50 hectares of specialised vineyards listed in the DOCG Chianti Classico Register of Vineyards lie at an altitude of 390-530 metres, in chalky-clay soils of gravelpebbly texture. Planted between 1964 and 1978 at a density of 3,000 vines per hectare, later vineyards were planted to a density of 5,300 vines per hectare. The vines are trained to vertical trellis, Guyot-pruned Open Lyre and Spurred Cordon. The rootstocks, 420 A are grafted to Sangiovese (80%) and Malvasia nera, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Pinot Nero (20%).


TASTING NOTE:


Castello di Ama Riserva is an exquisitely elegant wine. Produced from prevalently Sangiovese grapes gathered by hand, over time the wine has conveyed an impressive longevity, upholding a combination of elegance, structure and mellow tannins. The wine evolves with complexity, maintaining freshness on the finish.
