Description

Still red wine from Tuscany IGT, 13.5% ABV, produced by Marchesi Frescobaldi. 0.75-liter bottle, 2023 vintage. A wine made on the Castiglioni estate, where the Frescobaldi family has cultivated vines for centuries. The grapes are destemmed and fermented with light, constant pumping over in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Aged for 12 months in barriques and 2 months in bottle. On the nose, intense aromas of blackberry and blackcurrant blend with spicy notes of pepper, cloves, and subtle nuances of licorice. A beautiful, bright ruby red color with purple highlights. The palate is soft and enveloping, accompanied by a hint of acidity that lends a lovely freshness and a long, persistent, and spicy finish.

The little joys of life, the pleasure of flavours and taste – these are the sensations Tuscany offers, and which Frescobaldi wishes to dedicate to whoever sees in wine a culture beyond the vine and the grape. The dream of my family is to share our work, our emotions and our passion through our wines, to share a life dedicated to understanding and developing these terroirs, inspired by the spirit of Tuscany, the art of what is beautiful and what is good.

One thousand years of family history are a unique and incomparable treasure of knowledge and tradition. It is our duty to share this passion with future generations, passing on our love for these eternal places, these eternal hills. Read more

Harvest The freshly harvested grapes are destemmed and fermented. Light pumpovers are carried out regularly in temperature-controlled steel vats.
Wine making Once alcoholic fermentation is complete, malolactic fermentation takes place, and the wine begins ageing in barriques for a 12-month period, during which its various colours, aromas and tastes develops in typically perfect harmony.
Aging 12 months in French oak barrels and 2 months in bottles.
