Atelier
The Castello di Ama Atelier was born as a journey: a walk studded with encounters.
Personally, my first encounter was with the Place. Ama spoke to me. Right from the start. Living immersed in the Chianti hills, in close contact with Nature and History, was the driving force that started me in the continuous search for Beauty.
Second was the Wine, with its profound mysticism that has always attracted me.
Third was the Art, and its quiet revolution. Meeting the artists who have followed one another over the years has represented an inexhaustible supply of energy and motivation to continue walking.
The following stage of my personal journey was Michele Marin, the perfect composer of the olfactory melodies that I have always had in mind. From meeting him, the three ‘Eau de Parfum’ were born, which now represent my second skin.
This path, just like an atelier, a laboratory of ideas, led me to other very precious encounters, which were then translated into as many artisanal and personal creations. Every encounter makes me perceive more and more clearly the inspiring force of this magical place. That same force that appeared to me when I first came to Ama.

Fragrances
Starting from 2010, Castello di Ama started the collaboration with the perfume creator Michele Marin from Infragranti Parfumeur. And so was born a series of candles inspired by the rolling seasons in Ama.
To finally embrace the Eau de Parfum project ispired by the place. There are three Opera, three interpretations featuring the iris in iris mater , the rose in nomen rosae and then the helichrysum with helios chrysos .

Bags
Laura Laureto lives and works in Tuscany, where she creates original bags in leather and fabric.
"I have designed an elegant Wine Bag, when I buy important wine bottles I would like to receive them in an equally important case and at the same time I would like to reuse this precious case also in my daily life.
Thus was born a beautiful and functional bag, with a clean line and all in Olona canvas fabric inside which there is a padded beehive dedicated to transport. From the moment the bag is used as a beautiful Tote and not as a Wine Bag, the beehive will be pulled out and crushed on itself, and then reused in the next purchase or during subsequent transport.
