Castello Di Ama Chianti
Two bottles of Chianti Classico, chosen and kept in Commack.
The story behind Castello Di Ama
Chianti Classico is the historic heart of Chianti, the hills between Florence and Siena, and it is Sangiovese first: bright cherry, dried herb, a firm grip of tannin and acidity that wants food on the table. The Classico zone sets it apart from wider Chianti, and a Gran Selezione bottling comes from the estate's own fruit with a longer aging rule before release.
We keep just one or two bottles of each Castello Di Ama wine at the Commack shop, so what you see is what is on the shelf.
