Tenuta Castiglioni
Tenuta Frescobaldi 2024
Toscana IGT
Tenuta Frescobaldi Castiglioni 2020 honors over 700 years of winemaking tradition, with a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Sangiovese. The wine undergoes fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks, followed by 12 months of aging in barriques and 2 months in the bottle. Its vibrant ruby-red color is complemented by aromas of cherry, blackberry, blueberry, and mulberry, with spiced notes of cinnamon, star anise, and black pepper. On the palate, it is soft and enveloping, with resolved tannins and a long, persistent finish.
WINEMAKING
After the grapes are hand-sorted, a spontaneous alcoholic fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks, with light pumpovers during the first few days. Malolactic conversion occurs in new French oak barriques in which the wine continues to age.
