Frescobaldi Brunello di Montalcino CastelGiocondo 2013
What a score! We snagged this parcel in Italy a few months back...seems like a fine day to unleash it! Crazy delicious and SWEET pricing!
94...95...96...and SOLD, to the savviest Brunello di Montalcino drinkers on our mailing list!! Under $50!!
Those are big scores (not to mention our whoppingly excellent price), and in this fantastic vintage, Frescobaldi has made an extraordinary Brunello to LOVE, to drink with unbridled abandon, to covet and to share -- wow! Sexy, silky, instantly, immensely satisfying is putting it lightly --- this wine is redolent of cigar box, flowers, dried and fresh sweet cherry, citrus and toasted spices...MMMMMM!! A classic from this producer that dates back to 1800, it is quite simply a rock-solid, no-brainer of a buy at our price.
