Chianti Classico

2007 Chianti Classico Sangiovese

The Castello Di Ama Chianti Classico, a remarkable red wine from the esteemed 2007 vintage, showcases the true elegance of Sangiovese from the picturesque Chianti Classico region. This full-bodied wine offers a delightful blend of fruity and earthy notes, with prominent cherry and plum flavors complemented by subtle hints of leather and spice. Its high acidity brings a refreshing brightness, making it not only food-friendly but also extraordinarily vibrant on the palate. The tannins are notable yet smooth, providing structure without overpowering the wine's complexity. With a well-balanced dry profile, this wine is a true representation of the character and craftsmanship found in this celebrated Italian winegrowing area.

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
