Natalie's Score: 93/100

Castello di Ama San Lorenzo Gran Selezione 2016 Chianti Classico is a rich, full-bodied and vibrant red wine blend of 80% Sangiovese, 13% Merlot and 7% Malvasia Nera. Enticing on the nose with ripe red and dark berry, sweet tobacco and earthy, meaty aromas, look for dark cherry, black raspberry, anise and toasty oak spice flavours on this elegant and nicely balance Chianti with great acidity for food. Pour with a meat-lover's pizza. Drink or hold.
