The Frescobaldi Brunello Castelgiocondo Riserva 2004 is a dry red DOCG wine from Tuscany, 100% Sangiovese. It displays an intense ruby red color with garnet reflections. The nose is complex, with hints of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, tobacco, and leather. The palate is structured and elegant, velvety, with fine tannins and a long finish. It ages over 36 months in large oak barrels, then in the bottle, fermented in stainless steel. Ideal at 18-20°C with red meats and aged cheeses.
