The Tenuta Frescobaldi di Castiglioni Toscana IGT by Tenuta di Castiglioni is presented in a crimson color with violet reflections. The intense nose is dominated by fruit aromas of red berries such as strawberries and currants, followed by pleasantly spicy and balsamic notes of anise and cinnamon and a delicate hint of cocoa. On the palate it looks long and persistent, carried by a beautiful body. A remarkable acidity and dense, well-integrated tannins fill the mouth and lead into a fruity finish.
Serve with braised or fried beef, roast pork, game dishes of rabbit and wild boar and well ripened cheeses.
