Note di degustazione
The Riserva 2006 is at a beautiful stage of its life. Displaying a full spectrum of fruit, floral, spice and tertiary characters, starting with wonderful balsamic fruit notes, sweet macerated strawberries, red cherry, raspberry jam, liquorice, rose-scented talc, pomegranate molasses through to smoked meat and tobacco leaf – and returning full circle to chocolate covered cherries, picking up aromas of mint and lavender along the way! Like taking a stroll through wonderfully scented Italian garden. Superb acidity melds beautifully into satin-like tannins and the finish is long and luxurious.

A late harvest in early October and then the wine was aged in 20% new barriques before being bottled in May 2008. The label is overprinted with a handwritten message from Lorenza thanking Marco for this 25th something. Blackish ruby. Relatively evolved nose on both bottles. Warm brick flavour and very dry on the finish. Good medium thrust and nothing in excess. The aroma seems more mature than the palate. Real refinement on the palate. Appetising but there is something pretty fragile about the nose. (JR)
Informazioni sul produttore
Castello di Ama è una delle tenute più prestigiose del Chianti Classico. Situata nella zona più meridionale della denominazione, la tenuta produce vino solo dalla fine degli anni '70, ma da allora si è guadagnata la reputazione di essere una delle migliori della regione.
