Castello di Ama was founded in 1976, and is located in the heart of Tuscany. It is located about 12 miles northeast of Siena in the hills of Gaiole. This is the heart of Chianti Classico, a bucolic rolling landscape of woods, vineyards and olive groves.

The 2019 Gran Selezione Bellavista is a brilliant ruby red color. Intriguing aromas of exotic dark berries and pomegranate with fragrant tobacco notes. The palate is juicy and succulent with a silky texture, complexed and nuanced. Built for cellaring.

Blend:  80% Sangiovese, 20% Malvasia Nero

97 Points - Wine Spectator

Dark and brooding, this red evokes violet, black currant and black cherry flavors accented by wild herbs, iron, sanguine and spice notes. Underlined by a steely structure and vibrant acidity, this shows fine balance and harmony, yet will require more time to ultimately attain its sweet spot. Sangiovese and Malvasia Nera. Best from 2026 through 2047.
