Frescobaldi Castelgiocondo Brunello di Montalcino 2018 large format It's a sensational value that92 points Wine Spectator Elegant, with a vibrant structure shoring up cherry, raspberry, plum, earth and underbrush flavors. Turns compact on the finish, yet bright acidity and vestiges of the fruit keep this focused. Best from 2025 through 2040. 27,500 cases made, 3,000 cases imported. Bruce Sanderson 91 points Decanter World Wine Awards Violets and wet stone aromas with slight vanilla finish. Fine tannins that adds complexity and a long finish.
