Chianti Classico DOCG Ama 2022 Castello di Ama

The Chianti Classico Ama di Castello di Ama was born in the vineyards located on the hills between Gaiole and Radda in Chianti, in the heart of the Chianti Classico.

It is mainly produced with Sangiovese and Merlot grapes, rigorously harvested by hand around the beginning of September. After sorting, the grapes undergo a crushing and de-stemming process, before being macerated for about 15 days. After the malolactic fermentation the wine is assembled and placed in second passage barriques for about 12 months.

It is characterized by a bright red color with dark ruby reflections. The nose opens with elegant hints of ripe red fruits, enriched with pleasant spicy notes. It is harmonious and fresh on the palate, with a persistent berry aftertaste.

Perfect to accompany red meats, game and first courses based on meat sauce, it is ideal in combination with cold cuts and aged cheeses.
