Some wine lovers might think it absurd to utilise the best sangiovese grapes to make a rose of Castello di Ama. But that source has been, right from the beginning, the secret of the utter pleasure this wine brings. A crisp wine with rich nuances of tropical fruit, displaying the elegance that is born in superbly-exposed hillside vineyards, the Rosato conjures up the fragrances of a spring day in Ama. Vinification
- At the start of fermentation, a few hectolitres of must were drawn off from the best tanks; since the must had spent some 12 hours in contact with the skins, it exhibited a beautiful deep pink hue. It was then fermented in the white wine mode at 18-20oC. Following a series of tastings, 40% of the total wine went through malolactic fermentation. The terroir that yields this rose is the same that yields the wine Castello di Ama. The vineyards, planted in 1978, are at a density of 3, 000 vines per hectare, & are trained part to open lyre & part to Guyot, while the vineyards re-planted from 1990 to today are trained predominantly to Guyot & to spurred cordon, at a density of 5, 300 vines per hectare. This delicious wine, which appeared in the early 1980s, is composed of sangiovese & merlot, in proportions that vary from harvest to harvest. It derives its excellent body through the saignee process, from lots of wine that go to make Castello di Ama, & for this reason the resulting wine resembles more a young red wine than a white wine.
