Why We're Buying
In the 1970s, four families formed a partnership in Ama with the goal of producing the finest possible wine. The partners acquired five parcels, including San Lorenzo, Bellavista, Bertinga, Montebuoni, and, of course, La Casuccia. It is on this 31-acre terraced plot that Castello di Ama La Casuccia was born. Unlike many other Tuscan winemakers, Castello di Ama utilizes its highest-quality sangiovese for Chianti Classico instead of Vini da Tavola or Super Tuscans. The result is a ripe, aromatic, and beautiful wine with an unmistakable intensity and boundless depth. Best of all, collectors can enjoy this red blend in youth or wait for its 20th birthday before consuming it. The Final Sip: La Casuccia is made in exceedingly small quantities and only during exceptional vintages. Don’t overlook an opportunity to acquire this Chianti Classico.
Critics Scores
Antonio Galloni
Usually a wine of sensuality, the 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto La Casuccia is a powerhouse. That is probably a good thing for its long-term aging prospects, but readers will have to patient. Intense savory and mineral notes infuse the 2020 with tons of complexity. Even in this warm year, the 2020 is not opulent, but it is packed with tremendous intensity and pure power. Red-toned Sangiovese fruit emerges over time, but the 2020 is going to require a measure of patience.
