“Vigneto La Casuccia” Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG 2019
Castello di Ama | Tuscany
Castello di Ama s.r.l. s.a. | Loc. Ama | IT 53013 Gaiole in Chianti
This wine from the single vineyard of the same name is probably the most opulent of the house's selection line. On the nose, an almost brushstroke-wide presence of ripe fruit, spices and hints of crushed rock. On the palate, impressive suppleness, complexity and richness, plus a whole bouquet of dark fruit flavours flanked by firm, structured tannin. The Merlot content gives it additional depth and power.

"Dark ruby red. In the nose of rich cherry fruit, interwoven with blackberries and wild berries, fine undergrowth, plus a hint of mint and malt. Tightly woven on the palate with a magnificent fan, stretches elegantly over the tongue, great juiciness in the back, in addition noble spice in the final, powerful, will age magnificently." Falstaff
"Packed with succulent flavors of plum, blackberry and black cherry, this broad red is supported by a dense, burly structure that should allow it to evolve nicely over the next two decades. Reveals iron, earth, eucalyptus and tobacco accents on the finish. All the elements are there, this just needs time." Wine Spectator
"Cool blueberry aromas with violet fruit and an inky sheen. Also black liquorice. Full-bodied with firm and racy tannins that are polished yet structured. At the moment it is quite dense and closed. It needs time to open up and soften with bottle maturity. Try it after 2025." James Suckling
"The Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto la Casuccia 2019 is a wine of intensity, volume and power. But it also shows impeccable balance thanks to the skilled hands of the winery's winemaking team. I find that this Vigneto la Casuccia, whose fruit comes from a steep vineyard overlooking the Castello, is particularly full and rich. The weight and concentration of the fruit is indeed a feature of this classic growing season, and this wine carries it well. You are treated to an abundance of blackberries, spices, tobacco and grilled herbs." Wine Advocate
"The 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto La Casuccia is stunning. What a wine! In this vintage, the aromas are huge and expansive, a theme that also comes through on the palate. Cedar, tobacco, dried leaves, incense and blood orange race from the glass. The 2019 is stunning in its intensity, pedigree and overall balance. It is the wine of the vintage in Chianti Classico."
