More about the 2021 Castello di Ama Haiku: Castello di Ama’s 2021 Haiku draws you in, line by line, with precise elegance. Rooted in tradition, Sangiovese, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot move in measured harmony, each voice distinct yet seamlessly intertwined. The wine unfolds with a natural cadence, where structure and emotion meet, and every detail arrives with intent. From hillside vineyards rising between 420 and 500 meters, the wine gains a lift that defines its character. Clay-limestone soils drive a firm mineral spine, while elevation sharpens freshness and aromatic detail within the fruit. Under the direction of Marco Pallanti, each decision serves the wine’s voice, guiding the vineyard to speak fully and shaping a wine that feels both grounded and expressive. In the cellar, that same discipline carries through. Fermentation follows a measured path, capturing structure, while élevage frames the wine with balance, allowing oak to support finite details in balance. Texture builds with intention, fine tannins threading through layers of depth, carrying the wine forward in a steady rhythm to a long, composed finish that lingers with precision.
