Mind-blowing Chianti Classico

September 13, 2023

Fabulous… San Lorenzo remains the archetype for contemporary Chianti Classico. 

A perfect pairing for fresh pasta or homemade pizza,  look no further than the 2020 Castello di Ama Gran Selezione San Loreno Chianti Classico.

This stunning Chianti is a blend of the estate’s four historic vineyards.

What We Love About This Chianti Classico

At 500 feet above sea level, the clay, chalky soil is the heartbeat of this stunning Sangiovese.  The gorgeous texture and depth come from the terroir of the estate's historic vineyards, Bellavista, Casuccia, San Lorenzo, and Montebuoni vineyards.

The tannins are ripe and chewy, giving the wine a gorgeous grip throughout the entire experience.  

The tremendous vintage reveals itself in this wine; it is neither heavy nor extracted.  Rather, the fruit is wonderfully balanced and offers incredible depth.  

Please pass the pasta!!

"The 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Castello di Ama San Lorenzo is fabulous. It offers up a compelling mix of blackberry, graphite, crushed rocks, spice, lavender and black pepper, showing striking inner sweetness, gorgeous mid-palate pliancy and mind-blowing balance, all in a medium-bodied style that will be approachable with minimal cellaring. San Lorenzo remains an archetype for contemporary Chianti Classico."
