Brunello di Montalcino Castelgiocondo Marchesi de’ Frescobaldi 2015 Magnum OWC

MARCHESI DE FRESCOBALDI

The history of the Frescobaldi family starts over a thousand years ago and is closely connected with the history of Tuscany. At the high point of medieval Florence, the Frescobaldis spread their influence as bankers, earning the title of treasures to the English crown. A little later, with the flowering of the Renaissance, they became patrons of major works in Florence, such as the construction of the Santa Trinita bridge and the Basilica of Santo Spirito.

“OUR VISION”

TO BE THE REFERENCE PRODUCER OF TUSCAN FINE WINES,
EXCLUSIVELY DEDICATED TO EXALT THE DIVERSITY OF ITS TERROIRS.

Mission

The Frescobaldi name carries with it the on-going responsibility of cultivating the best of Tuscan diversity, through:
• Sustainable cultivation of the land to produce fine wines which perfectly represent and fully illustrate the diversity of our family estates.

• Communicating and promoting the culture of Tuscany and its different territories, through our Estates, our wines and specific value-enhancing projects

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO CASTELGIOCONDO

“CastelGiocondo’s unique location in Montalcino, with its varied exposure and terrain – galestro, clay and Pleocene sands – offers infinite nuances to this Brunello. A multi-faceted experience that evolves over time and entices us to discover, taste and remember, again and again.”

VINIFICATION AND AGEING

The great care taken in the vineyard, together with the typical characteristics of this unmistakable terroir, resulted in an outstanding harvest. The Sangiovese grapes were picked by hand and carefully selected after arriving in the cellar. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature with frequent pump-overs, particularly during the early stages. The wine was then aged in wood containers, where it was able to mature, ripen and develop balance. Five years after the grapes were picked, and only after another period spent ageing in the bottle, CastelGiocondo Brunello is now ready to be placed on the market.

TASTING NOTES

Brunello CastelGiocondo 2014 first appeals to the eye with its bright, rich ruby-red hue.
On the nose, fruity notes dominate, ranging from raspberry to blackcurrant, with vague hints of blueberry. Elegant floral notes emerge, offering striking and surprising scents of violet. Spicy tertiary notes are then released, due to the lengthy ageing process. Cinnamon, pepper and leather combine in an experience of extreme elegance, finishing on a balsamic note. The wine envelops the mouth completely and impresses with its balance, its dense tannic texture and its minerality, as well as its long, persistent finish.
