Castello di Ama Chianti Classico Vigneto San Lorenzo 1988 DOCG 0.75l is a testament to Tuscan terroir, born from the encounter between a historic vineyard and the vision of an estate capable of transforming raw materials and time into a manifestation of quiet grandeur. Set within the Chianti Classico landscape, Vigneto San Lorenzo embodies a maturity built over the years with patience and care, today offering a bottle that remains faithful to its terroir while revealing a depth that is uncommon. Castello di Ama is a winery rooted in the heart of Gaiole in Chianti, where the winemaking tradition has evolved thanks to a governance that values ​​local identity without losing sight of contemporary developments: a family and a team of professionals who have successfully combined attention to the vineyard, winemaking culture, and hospitality, transforming the wine experience into a meeting of history and the present. The production philosophy is based on careful vine management, moderate yields, and artisanal production, with practices that prioritize soil biodiversity, meticulous manual harvesting, and aging that combines selected wood and slow maturation, allowing the wine to develop a balance between power and refinement without forcing. Among its distinguishing features is the unique expression of San Lorenzo: a character that, while retaining deep notes of black fruit, opens up to earthy textures, pepper, sweet spices, and a subtle minerality that acts as a glue between tensile tannins and a residual freshness, offering a slow, consistent, and memorable progression on the palate. Within the Castello di Ama range, the 1988 stands as a milestone, demonstrating the winery's ability to convey the complexity of the vineyard and the longevity typical of Chianti Classico in the glass, serving as a bridge between its artisanal heritage and the evolution of contemporary dining. In line with STELT's positioning, this bottle is a choice for those seeking authenticity, longevity, and a deep connection to the territory, an invitation to discover how time can transform terroir into a lasting sensory experience.
