CASTELLO DI AMA Bellavista Chianti Classico 2006 Magnum

CASTELLO DI AMA 

Ama takes its name from a small borgo, an agricultural hamlet, nestled in the hills at an altitude of almost 500 metres. Five centuries ago it was a hub of a florid farming and winemaking business overseen by a group of local families. The hills and valleys surrounding the castle of Amma are the most beautiful in all Chianti, superbly tended with fertile grain fields, olive groves and magnificent vineyards. Castello di Ama, the winery, was founded in the 1970s by a group of families who had fallen under the spell of this magical spot. They set themselves the task of reviving Ama’s past glories and of producing wines that would rank among the best in the world.

Ama’s wines are well situated, in full sun, beautifully tended, as if they were gardens.
