Castello di Ama , the winery, was founded in the 1970s by a group of families who had fallen under the spell of this magical spot. They set themselves the task of reviving Ama’s past glories and of producing a Chianti Classico that would rank among the world’s most prestigious wines.
Colour: dark ruby red with crimson hues. Nose: fruity notes rich with forest berries and plum, and hints of ripe fruit and jam. Spicy hints of cinnamon and cloves, with tertiary notes conjuring up tobacco, leather, tanned hide, with a distinct toasty note. Mouth: delicate attack, velvety tannins, rich, rounded flavour, lingering and stylish.
