2020 Castello di Ama 'Purple Rose' Toscana IGT, Tuscany, Italy (750ml) 2015 The trick with red wineWINEMAKER'S NOTES: Castello di Ama has been producing Rosato since 1982. This wine comes from the best vats of Sangiovese and Merlot through a drain (saignee) carried out for almost 12 hours with skin contact. For many years, we have been fermenting the extracted must in small stainless steel tanks, but three years ago, we started an experiment to ferment the must just extracted in second passage barriques.
