Really delicious and a consistently great value wine across vintages. Red cherry, mint and orange bitters. Can't go wrong.

The 2018 Chianti Classico Ama shows just how promising the vintage is. A burst of sweet red cherry fruit, cedar, leather, spice and orange peel give the 2018 a feeling of exuberance that is impossible to miss. The purity of the flavors is just striking. This is such a beautiful wine. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2020)

Nice chianti classico.
Slightly young. Still a little bit harsh at the end of both nose and palate.
Nice dark ripe fruits nose.
Erbs, spices flavours with tannic end.
