Frescobaldi Castelgiocondo Brunello Di Montalcino 2016

Iconic big, full bodied red from the hillside town of Montalcino, which is a small enclave of big wines close to the Tuscan coast. Brunello di Montalcinos by law have to be 100% Sangiovese; the great red grape of Tuscany. Maceration and ageing times are long and result in wines that can be kept in a cool dark cellar for 10+ years, evolving beautiful into even more savoury, velvety reds over that time. 

This vintage, 2016, was a great year - ?best ever? for many winemakers.

This lovely smooth wine has a powerful structure with aromas of spice, balsamic and ripe dark fruit.
