Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself in the heart of Tuscany, where the sun caresses the vines and history is savored with every sip. This Brunello di Montalcino from the Frescobaldi estate is an invitation to a sensory journey, a pure and refined expression of its terroir, which will leave a memorable impression on you.
The Frescobaldi estate, whose winemaking history goes back centuries, is a pillar of the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG appellation. It is here, on the generous soils of Montalcino, that the Sangiovese Grosso grape, unique to this region, fully flourishes. This 2015 vintage, born from this blessed land, is the fruit of ancestral know-how and an unwavering passion for excellence.
The vinification of this Brunello begins with fermentation in steel tanks, followed by a long maceration on the skins, lasting about four weeks. This crucial step extracts the intense color and complex aromas of the Sangiovese Grosso. Next, the wine begins an aging of at least five years, partly in Slavonian oak barrels, giving it its structure and depth. Its color is a very luminous ruby red, already promising beautiful intensity. On the nose, you will discover a concentration of aromas dominated by red fruits, notably morello cherry and ripe blood orange, enhanced by spicy and leather notes. On the palate, it reveals itself rich and enveloping, with a pleasant tension that highlights a perfectly integrated tannic framework. The finish is seductive with its marked sapidity and prolonged persistence, leaving you with a lasting impression of refinement.
This Brunello di Montalcino is an ideal companion for your most refined meals. I particularly recommend it with grilled red meats, game in sauce, or aged cheeses. Imagine it alongside a good dish of pasta with intense flavors or a slow-cooked stew. It is a wine to be fully savored, whether at a special dinner or to mark a memorable occasion. Let yourself be carried away by the elegance of this wine, a true tribute to the richness of Tuscany.
