This 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is the estate's signature wine, made entirely from Sangiovese, which finds its strength and finesse here. What makes Frescobaldi CastelGiocondo Brunello di Montalcino 2020 so special? The combination of hand-harvested Sangiovese, the mosaic of galestro, clay, and Pliocene sand, and long aging in wood and bottle, results in a Brunello with layered complexity and impressive balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"654\" data-end=\"679\"\u003e Vineyards and region\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"681\" data-end=\"1384\"\u003eThe wine comes from Tuscany, Italy, from the beautiful municipality of Montalcino, on the CastelGiocondo estate on the southwest side of the village. Here, the Sangiovese vines benefit from different exposures and a diverse soil of galestro (crumbled marl), clay, and Pliocene sand, giving the wine an almost endless range of nuances. The vineyards are situated on slopes with ideal sunshine and good drainage, allowing the grapes to ripen fully and healthily. The 2020 harvest took place under favorable conditions, with ample water reserves from 2019, a warm but balanced summer, and a dry, clear harvest period that produced healthy bunches with beautiful phenolic ripeness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"1386\" data-end=\"1413\"\u003e Vinification and maturation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"1415\" data-end=\"2149\"\u003eUpon arrival at the cellar, each batch of Sangiovese undergoes careful selection on sorting tables, ensuring only the finest grapes are fermented. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, with regular pump-overs during the first few days to extract color, aroma, and fine tannins from the skins without hardening the wine. After fermentation, the wine is aged in wooden barrels, where it is given time to develop a balance of structure, aroma, and flavor. The oak aging followed by further bottle aging ensures that CastelGiocondo is released as Brunello di Montalcino only after five years of cellaring, at the moment when freshness, power, and tertiary aromas have harmonized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"2151\" data-end=\"2176\"\u003e Grape composition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"2178\" data-end=\"2463\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-start=\"2178\" data-end=\"2228\"\u003eSangiovese – Tenuta CastelGiocondo, Montalcino\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr data-start=\"2228\" data-end=\"2231\"\u003eThe wine is 100% Sangiovese from selected plots at CastelGiocondo, which provides the characteristic combination of ripe red and black fruit, floral notes, firm yet refined tannins and a pronounced mineral signature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"2465\" data-end=\"2498\"\u003e Tasting notes and serving suggestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"2500\" data-end=\"3343\"\u003eCastelGiocondo 2020 has an intense, brilliant ruby ​​red color.
