Riserva Ripe al Convento di Castelgiocondo Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2009

Giampiero Nadali
8.9

Cru in Montalcino, vines are 17 yrs. old, Sangiovese at the right color and transparency, still very young, medium body and structure, a little bit hot (15% alcohol declared), in the end is a very well done Brunello. #FrescobaldiTasting — 8 years ago

Giramonte Tenuta di Castiglioni Toscana IGT Super Tuscan Blend 2011

Giampiero Nadali
8.6

Merlot + Sangiovese in this one, great red fruit, but you may chew some (or too much) nice oak. It's a real pity, but I think you, international friends, could enjoy it. #FrescobaldiTasting — 8 years ago

Benefizio Castello di Pomino Bianco Riserva Chardonnay 2014

Giampiero Nadali
7.1

Among the most famous Chardonnay coming from Tuscany, this one (also) is fatally touched by some oak fermenting and aging. Medium body, good balance in acidity and saltiness, medium long finish. This vintage doesn't guarantee a long aging, but I'll wait 2-3 yrs. before drinking it. #FrescobaldiTasting — 8 years ago

Mormoreto Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Giampiero Nadali
8.9

Super-Tuscan blend, fresh with balanced tannins, no hints of green or vegetable typical of Cab. Sauv. & Franc not perfectly matured. A very good expression #FrescobaldiTasting — 8 years ago
