97 James Suckling
This is beautiful and decadent with notes of ripe red and dark berries with sweet spices, bark and hints of dried leaves. Full-bodied and tight with finely polished and compact tannins that run the whole length of the wine. Long and firm with granite-like presence on the finish. A little chewy at the end. A blend of sangiovese and merlot. Try after 2026.

Plum, blackberry and earth flavors show a hint of caramel in this suave, muscular red, framed by toasty oak. This feels fluid and open, until the dense, beefy tannins unleash their presence on the finish. Persistent and fresh, with a long aftertaste. Sangiovese and Merlot. Best from 2026 through 2045.

The Castello di Ama 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto la Casuccia is a single-vineyard expression of Sangiovese. The wine is dark and concentrated in this vintage with lovely tones of ripe blackberry, baked plum, sweet earth and black rose. It has all the classic aromas of the variety, only in this case they are delivered with extra heft and push thanks to the warm and sunny growing season. This vintage remains slightly more accessible overall.

Castello di Ama
Au cœur du Chianti Classico, sur la commune de Gaiole, Castello di Ama est un domaine prestigieux. Il doit sa création en 1970 à quatre familles romaines. Depuis 1982, Castello di Ama est dirigé par l’œnologue de confiance Marco Pallanti et son épouse, Lorenza Sebasti, également PDG de la cave. Le domaine s’est forgé une réputation en tant qu’élaborateur du premier grand merlot toscan – L’Apparita – mais il signe également deux assemblages de Chianti Classico à titre plus confidentiel, Vigneto La Casuccia et Vigneto Bellavista. Producteur-récoltant incontournable en Toscane, il compte 210 hectares de terres, répartis entre 75 ha de vignobles, 45 ha d’oliviers et 100 ha de bois. Son panorama sur la région du Chianti Classico est l’un des plus spectaculaires. Castello di Ama crée des vins extraordinaires déclinés en sept rouges, un blanc, un rosé et un vin doux en cours d’élaboration.
