| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
CASTELLO DI AMA |
| Fairly deep purple-ruby colour. Fragant, floral, violet-rose-tinged nose with some slightly spicy, bright, fresh, plum-crancherrry fruit accompanied by faintly earthy, sandalwood notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, quite well structured, slightly spicy, fairly complex, bright, intense, ripe plum-crancherry flavours with some mineral notes and a lingering gently cedary, fairly high-acid, fresh finish. This blend of 96% Sangiovese and 4% Merlot has 13.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L21A07 on the back label. Better than the 2016 (***) that was released on September 5, 2020 at $35.95. |

| TASTING NOTE: This is really juicy and delicious with ripe cherries and berries, as well as some bark and dried orange. Medium to full body with round, refined tannins and a flavorful finish. Transparent and linear. Lively at the end. Excellent energy. Drink or hold [through 2029]. Score - 94 (jamessuckling.com, Aug. 11, 2021) |
