Castello di Ama

Riserva Montebuoni Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2019

This didn't upload properly with my notes but I'm liking these Sangiovese's with a 4-5% blend of Merlot - it rounds them out and makes them more approachable because you can't pair with a wild boar ragout pasta every night of the week.

Blind #1. Got em. Got em good. Old world guesses of Rhone and Amarone! More like “Am’I’right’e?” No. They were Ama-wrong-e.
They called me “devious” for this one. 😏

Purple Rose 2020

I suppose since this is Castello di Ama I shouldn’t be surprised it’s very good. Gobs of ripe fruit and freshness on the nose, with a nice crushed rock background. In the mouth, it’s dry, fresh as heck, and has good concentration and balance. Totally dry. Phenomenal with Chinese takeout on a warm evening. — 3 years ago
