Rated 97/100 by James Suckling (top 12% of their reviews).
Researched by our team from producer and independent sources — not supplied by the seller.
An 80% Sangiovese, 20% Malvasia Nera single-vineyard wine from the Bellavista parcel, showing saturated ruby color, floral and spiced black-cherry aromatics, and a powerful, vertical, structured palate with graphite and crushed-rock minerality.
Bellavista is a true single-vineyard Gran Selezione — sourced only from the named Bellavista parcel, identified among the estate's historic selections in 1978 — distinguishing it from its sibling San Lorenzo, which is a multi-vineyard blend across four estate sites and includes a Merlot component that Bellavista lacks entirely.
Wild mushroom risotto (risotto ai funghi porcini)
The wine's earthy, mineral, crushed-rock notes and structured tannins pair naturally with the umami depth of porcini mushrooms.
Aged pecorino toscano
A classic regional pairing — firm tannin and fresh acidity cut through the richness and saltiness of aged Tuscan sheep's-milk cheese.
Product information compiled from producer, importer and reference sources.
Sangiovese-led Tuscan blend with bright cherry, plum, and herbaceous character—food-friendly and elegant.
Castello Di Ama's Vigneto Bellavista DOCG is a classically structured Tuscan red built on 80% Sangiovese with 20% Malvasia Nera. The 2018 vintage expresses the primary fruit-forward character typical of Chianti expressions: ripe red cherry and plum dominate the nose and palate, supported by herbaceous undertones and a mineral spine.
Medium-full body and balanced tannin make this wine approachable in youth while retaining enough structure for modest cellaring. Earthy secondary notes and hints of dried fruit complexity suggest food-pairing versatility across Italian cuisine, grilled meats, and tomato-based dishes.
