Decanted and drank over two hours.
Initially a little funk on the nose, was worried about Brett. But it blew over and what emerged was a nice wine.
Castello di Ama never fails and remains my favorite Chianti producer.
Turned fruit-forward with notes of bright cherry, raspberry, red plum, and thyme.
Paired well with truffle risotto.
90 points.

A top producer – and a very nice family.
What are you other favorites in Chianti?
