Castello di Ama settles on a tried-and-true formula with its Chianti Classico Ama. The trick is to present the elegant side of Sangiovese (blended in this case with a touch of Merlot) while also remaining fun, accessible and easy-drinking. This wine brings forth a bit more heat and fruit concentration, but it also shows delicate cassis, red rose and Mediterranean aromas. The tannins are gentle and the mouthfeel is streamlined.
The 2014 Chianti Classico Ama is a less formal wine with a lean and somewhat watery mouthfeel. This wine does not deliver the same level of intensity seen in previous vintages. However, it does exhibit mild aromas of wild berry and white almond followed by fresh acidity and food-friendly appeal.

Italy's most ancient wine region, Tuscany may not be a heavyweight in terms of quantity, but as the home of two of the country's most famous fine wines – Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino – it certainly holds its own in terms of quality. Tuscany's climate ranges from Mediterranean on the coast to continental deep in the Apennines. More than two thirds of the province is covered with hills, an important terroir factor in its fine wines.
