Castello di Ama La Casuccia Gran Selezione Chianti Classico 2021

The 2021 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigneto La Casuccia is one of the most open and expressive wines in this range – a wine that hints at the greatness of the year. Crushed rose petal, blood orange, mint, spice, new leather and cedar all saturate the palate. Silky tannins wrap it all together. Sensual and deep, the Casuccia is both immensely pleasurable and very serious. What a wine. Drinking window: 2027-2046. Score – 98. (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, July 11, 2024)
