Note di degustazione
The 2006 L’Apparita is one of the most reticent wines in this tasting. Vibrant and explosive in feel, the 2006 comes across as very tight today. Readers will have to be patient, but all the ingredients are present for the 2006 to develop into a more expressive and representative Apparita with further time in bottle.

One of the highlights in this vertical, and easily one of the finest Apparitas ever made, the 2006 has it all. Fruit, acidity and structure. It's all there. Rich and powerful, the 2006 is beautifully nuanced and articulate from the first taste. Wild herbs, flowers, tobacco, black cherries and graphite all jump from the glass. Saline and savory notes abound in a massive yet detailed Merlot loaded with class and personality. Simply put, the 2006 is stunning. Readers who purchased this wine upon release are going to be thrilled.
The 2006 L'Apparita (Merlot) reveals gorgeous clarity and precision. It is another large-scaled, dramatic wine, rich in baritone notes of dark fruit, menthol, herbs, licorice and new leather. The tannins build mightily on the vibrant finish, yet this remains an impeccable, polished wine of remarkable beauty. I only hope to have a chance to taste the wine again in the future. Amazingly today it tastes just like it did from tank in November 2006!

I am not sure I possess the vocabulary to do these majestic wines – the reds in particular – justice. Simply put, Castello di Ama’s 2006s are spectacular and every bit as magnificent as they were when I tasted them late that year. Simply put, this is a profound set of new releases from Marco and Lorenza Pallanti. Sadly, few readers are likely to have an opportunity to experience the top wines, as pricing is way up in the stratosphere. Importer: The Sorting Table, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 603-1461
