{"product_id":"castello-di-ama-lapparita-italie","title":"Castello Di Ama - L'Apparita - 2019","description":"\u003cp\u003eNestled in the heart of Chianti Classico, the L'Apparita vineyard is located on the hills of Gaiole in Chianti, within the Castello di Ama estate. Planted in an amphitheater on clay-limestone soils rich in galestro, it benefits from excellent exposure and significant temperature variations that promote slow and complete grape maturation. Surrounded by forests and olive groves typical of Tuscany, this cru benefits from a well-ventilated and temperate microclimate, ideal for expressing the finesse and depth of Merlot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarvesting is done manually with meticulous sorting of the bunches, then the berries are destemmed and crushed before alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, with skin maceration to extract color and structure. Malolactic fermentation then takes place in barrels. Aging continues for a long time in French oak barrels, largely new, to refine the tannins and develop aromatic complexity, before an additional period of rest in bottle at the estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eblack cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eripe plum\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003esmall dark berries\u003c\/strong\u003e, enhanced by \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches of violet and \u003cstrong\u003erose\u003c\/strong\u003e, as well as \u003cstrong\u003espicy\u003c\/strong\u003e nuances of pepper, licorice and \u003cstrong\u003eclove\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eWoody\u003c\/strong\u003e accents of cedar, blond tobacco and \u003cstrong\u003echocolate\u003c\/strong\u003e complete the bouquet.
