This wine has earned its spot in a world of pantheons that is grande vini Italiani. The Castello di Ama 2018 L'Apparita is one of the world's greatest Merlots, and this slightly cooler growing season delivers on all the promise and pedigree that we should expect of this collectors' favorite. L'Apparita opens to an inky dark and blackish appearance, and the bouquet slowly reveals black fruit, ripe cherry, dark spice, smoke and barbecue rub. The wine's texture and finish, which is so velvety and rich, so supple and soft, is what will ultimately win you over. Indeed, this wine excels especially in terms of the elegance and fullness of the mouthfeel.

The 2018 L'Apparita is a total stunner. Ama's 100% Merlot is usually a wine of bombastic intensity, but the 2018 marks a departure from that style, as it is all finesse and nuance. Blackberry jam, spice, menthol and lavender are some of the aromas and flavors that open in an Apparita that dazzles with its precision and nuance. Rain at the end of August pushed out harvest and gave Marco Pallanti the ideal conditions to craft this gorgeous wine.

Hard dark-chocolate aromas with blackberries and blue fruit. Pure and gorgeous. Full-bodied with gorgeous, polished tannins that are intense and powerful, yet ever so precise and together. It’s so curated and real with a great finish. One of the best merlots from Ama in a long time. Drink after 2024 and onwards.
Hersteller
Castello di Ama
Das in Gaiole gelegene Castello di Ama ist ein erstklassiges Weingut im Herzen von Chianti Classico. Gegründet in den 1970er-Jahren von vier römischen Familien, wird das Castello seit 1982 von dem erfahrenen Winzer Marco Pallanti und seiner Frau und Geschäftsführerin Lorenza Sebasti betrieben. Während das Castello di Ama heute als Erzeuger des ersten großen toskanischen Merlot, des L’Apparita, gilt, produziert es auch zwei kleinere Versionen von Lagen-Verschnitten Chianti-Classico – Vigneto La Casuccia und Vigneto Bellavista. Dieses toskanische Referenzweingut umfasst 210 Hektar, davon 75 Hektar Rebfläche, 45 Hektar Olivenbäume und 100 Hektar Waldfläche, und offenbart traumhafte Ausblicke auf die Region Chianti Classico. Das Castello di Ama kreiert außerordentliche Weine, darunter sieben Rote, ein Weißer, ein Rosé und ein Süßwein.
