Castello Ama Il Chiuso 1989 - 0,75l

Castello Ama Il Chiuso 1989 is a refined Tuscan red that brings together Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon in a beautifully mature expression. Aged for 24 months in French oak, it offers the depth, structure, and elegance that have made Castello di Ama one of Tuscany’s most respected names.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep, mature ruby hue with subtle garnet reflections from age. The nose opens with layers of ripe red and dark fruit, dried herbs, spice, and a gentle touch of vanilla from the oak. On the palate, it is full-bodied and complex, with a balanced acidity that keeps the wine lively and soft tannins that have had time to integrate beautifully. The finish is long and polished, and while it is already expressive now, its mature profile suggests it can still hold well for collectors who appreciate fully evolved Tuscan reds.

Production
Produced in Tuscany from a blend of Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, Il Chiuso reflects the character of the region’s clay- and limestone-influenced terroir. The grapes were harvested in 1989 and vinified with a focus on preserving balance, concentration, and varietal expression before spending 24 months in French oak barrels to add complexity and finesse.

Food & Serving
This wine is an excellent match for rich dishes such as roasted beef, lamb, game, and slow-cooked stews. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if the bottle is showing its age and you want the aromas to open fully.
