Description
Castello Ama San Lorenzo 1987 is a beautifully matured Tuscan red that brings together Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon in a classic, characterful blend. From one of Chianti Classico’s most respected producers, it reflects the elegance, depth, and longevity that have made Castello di Ama a benchmark name in the region.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep garnet-red color with the kind of subtle evolution you’d expect from a well-aged vintage. The bouquet is layered and refined, with ripe dark fruit, warm spice, cedar, and gentle oak tones leading into hints of vanilla and cocoa.
On the palate, it is full-bodied yet graceful, with vibrant acidity and well-integrated tannins that still give the wine structure. The finish is long, savory, and polished, with lingering notes of spice, chocolate, and mature fruit. It is drinking beautifully now, though its balance and concentration suggest it can continue to develop further complexity with careful cellaring.
Production
Produced in Tuscany from a blend of Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, San Lorenzo is crafted to express both regional identity and international depth. The grapes were harvested from carefully selected vineyard parcels and the wine was aged in oak barrels, allowing it to gain texture, aromatic complexity, and a supple, layered profile over time.
Food & Serving
This is an ideal wine for roast or grilled red meats, game, braised dishes, and mature cheeses. Serve it at 18–20°C, and decanting is recommended if the bottle has been recently opened, especially to help the wine reveal its full bouquet and softer texture.
