Castello di ama vigna l'apparita 2016 (giftbox, 0.75 l)

Tasting notes

"The 2016 L'Apparita is a standout wine. A true symbol of the vintage, the wine shows the classic lines and extreme precision we can expect from 2016, with the plump, ripe generosity of the Merlot grape (when farmed in the right hands of course). The wine is profound, rich and beautifully concentrated with power but no residual heaviness. I went back to this sample a few times in the 12 hours after I popped the cork, and the wine was more beautiful each time."

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

According to Robert Parker, no single producter has done more to promote an upscale image for Chianti Classico than Marco Pallanti and Castello di Ama.

Castello Di Ama is unique, employing its best Sangiovese to produce Chianti Classico, unlike many Tuscan producers who have chosen to blend their best Sangiovese into Vini da Tavola or Super Tuscans.

The crus of Bellavista and La Casuccia are produced only in outstanding vintages and in extremely limited quantity. These wines in their concentration, harmony and overall elegance represent the best expression of Sangiovese in Tuscany.

Ama also produces the distinctive single-vineyard Merlot l'Apparita from the upper portion of the Bellavista vineyard.
