The maturity of this release shows on its deep yet transparent orangey red appearance. Wonderfully mellow, pure, appetising aroma, and lovely, rounded and savoury on the palate. The tannins have whispering softness, and while Brunello has a reputation for long-ageing, there is absolutely nothing to get in the way of enjoying this right now. Dive in!

Winemaking
The great care taken in the vineyard, together with the typical characteristics of this unmistakable terroir, resulted in an outstanding harvest. The Sangiovese grapes were picked by hand and carefully selected after arriving in the cellar. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature with frequent pump-overs, particularly during the early stages. The wine was then aged in wood containers, where it was able to mature, ripen and develop balance. Five years after the grapes were picked, and only after another period spent ageing in the bottle, CastelGiocondo Brunello is now ready to be placed on the market.
