About this Event
Join Zachys Wednesday, November 18 for an intimate masterclass with Arturo Pallanti, representing the next generation of Castello di Ama, one of the benchmark estates of Chianti Classico. The son of Lorenza Sebasti and renowned winemaker Marco Pallanti, Arturo joined the family estate in 2021 after studying Viticulture and Enology in Florence and gaining experience across Italy.
Located in Gaiole in Chianti, Castello di Ama is celebrated for its high-altitude vineyards and pioneering approach to terroir-driven Chianti Classico. The estate helped put single-vineyard Gran Selezione on the map and is behind iconic wines including Bellavista, La Casuccia, and L'Apparita, its legendary 100% Merlot.
Through a curated lineup of current and library releases, Arturo will guide guests through the distinctive vineyards, history, and winemaking that have established Castello di Ama among Tuscany's benchmark estates.
A rare chance to taste with the next generation of Castello di Ama and experience some of the estate's most celebrated wines, with an extensive library release also available to explore. We look forward to welcoming you!
