Castello di Ama San Lorenzo 2020 – Exclusive Chianti Classico Gran Selezione with elegance, intensity, and great aging potential

Castello di Ama San Lorenzo 2020 is an exclusive Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG from Tuscany, Italy. The wine is a classic expression of Castello di Ama's style and is primarily made from Sangiovese, complemented by small quantities of Merlot and Malvasia Nera, resulting in a wine with finesse, freshness, and depth. The producer describes San Lorenzo as a complex wine characterized by elegance, intensity, length, and freshness.

The 2020 vintage offers a dark ruby-red and refined style with aromatic notes of strawberries, red cherries, orange peel, liquorice, and leather. The taste is silky smooth and juicy with excellent concentration, vibrant acidity, and a long, polished finish that underscores the wine's serious and age-worthy character.

The grapes for San Lorenzo come from some of the estate's best plots, including Bellavista, Casuccia, San Lorenzo, and Montebuoni, where the clay and limestone soil contributes to the wine's structure and minerality. Producer materials for 2020 also highlight that the wine is aged for 14 months in oak, which adds extra complexity and balance.

This exclusive Chianti Classico Gran Selezione pairs particularly well with beef, lamb, game, braised dishes, and aged cheeses. Castello di Ama San Lorenzo 2020 is an excellent choice for wine lovers seeking a grand Tuscan wine experience with character, elegance, and collector's potential. The bottle comes in 75 cl.

94 /100

Elegant, brilliant ruby with a thin garnet rim. Graceful bouquet with earthy, smoky notes, plus fine cherry, and wood spice. Pleasantly juicy on the palate, harmonious interplay of fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity, very long.

Falstaff

94 /100

Made with a selection of the best estate Sangiovese (with a hint of Merlot and Malvasia Nera) from across various parcels, the Castello di Ama 2020 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione San Lorenzo is chiseled and dark with a through-line of dark mineral and crushed rock. That dry mineral note forms a precise frame around dark fruit and oak spice. The wine has drying tannins and a long, polished finish.

About the grape

Chianti Blend

Chianti Blend er den klassiske toscanske druesammensætning, som gennem århundreder har defineret rødvinene fra Chianti‑området. Blendet er centreret omkring Sangiovese, der udgør mindst 70 % i Chianti DOCG, 75 % i Chianti Colli Senesi og 80 % i Chianti Classico. Resten af blendet udgøres traditionelt af lokale sorter som Canaiolo, Colorino, Ciliegiolo og Mammolo, som tilføjer farve, blødhed og aromatisk finesse.

I moderne tid er blendet blevet udvidet, idet op til 15 % Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc eller Merlot er tilladt i Chianti. Det tilfører dybere farve, mørkere frugt og større struktur – en ændring, der skabte debat blandt purister, men som i praksis har løftet kvaliteten og skabt moderne, kraftigere stilarter.

Chianti Blend udvikler vine med levende rød frugt, florale noter, tørrede urter og bitterkirsebær samt Chiantis karakteristiske høje syre og faste tanninstruktur. Dette gør vinen exceptionelt madvenlig og i stand til at spejle både regionens terroir og dens historiske udvikling – fra klassisk rustik Chianti til de mere moderne og fyldige fortolkninger.

Serving

Server ved 16–18°C i et Chianti‑ eller universalrødvinsglas for at fremhæve vinens aromatiske lift og syre.
