Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

DESCRIPTION

CastelGiocondo is produced from an uncompromising selection of the finest Sangiovese grapes, in a vineyard whose ideal elevation, well-drained soils, and southwest-facing exposure yield all of the qualities that converge to produce the finest expression of this ancient grape variety. It is an elegant, well-balanced wine of magnificent structure.

VINTAGE REPORT

The 2011 season started according to norm, with abundant rains and mild temperatures in the spring and warm temperatures in the first part of the summer, which ensured that the grapes arrived at veraison in optimum condition. Temperatures rose in the latter part of August, which gave Sangiovese remarkable ripeness: at harvest, the grapes were impressively concentrated, intensely coloured, and sound and healthy.

TASTING NOTES

The wine appears a rich ruby red, then releases clean-edged aromas of raspberry and pomegranate, enriched by graceful floral notes. All components are beautifully balanced on the palate, with glossy, elegant tannins and a full-flavoured, long-lingering finish with a delicious minerally tang.

Beef stews, braised meats and aged cheeses.
