Quality and Value
Federl Wine & Spirits, 23rd March 2010
"Please pass this on to any friends who are wine enthusiasts!"
... with these words Peter Hemenway di Federal Wine & Spirits writes about Rosato di Castello di Ama 2009:
As many of you know, this is one of my two favorite Italian roses. The 2009 Castello di Ama Rosato is 90% Sangiovese and 10% Canaiolo. It is made with the same selection of grapes that make up the $50 Ama red. This is what Lorenza and Marco say about it:
“Some wine lovers might think it absurd to utilise the best Sangiovese grapes to make a rosé of Castello di Ama. But that source has been, right from the beginning, the secret of the utter pleasure this wine brings. A crisp wine with rich nuances of tropical fruit, displaying the elegance that is born in superbly-exposed hillside vineyards, our Rosato conjures up the fragrances of a spring day in Ama.”
