Tenuta Castelgiocondo Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Castelgiocondo 2019

Earthy tannins, fresh acidities, leather sandalwood and campfire, evident structure, a little rustic. Give it plenty of oxygen and time to open, tight on the finish right now, allow the bitter orange peel, pomegranate and black tea fragrance to curl out of the glass. Will benefit from a few more years in bottle. Largest estate in Brunello, owned by Marchesi Frescobaldi.
