Drew's Tasting Note

Complex ripe hedgerow fruit and light floral aromas. Allow time for this wine to breathe, and these aromas will also include cedar and spices. There is a silky elegance, a hint of minerality, and masses of black fruits with a long and layered finish on the palate.

The Winery

Marchesi di Frescobaldi is among the oldest and most renowned Italian wine dynasties. The Frescobaldi family has produced wine in Tuscany for over 700 years and has always been at the forefront of modernising the Italian wine industry. In 1855, Frescobaldi introduced then-unknown grape varieties to Tuscany, such as Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, and Merlot. The family’s vineyard land in Tuscany covers nearly 1000 hectares across nine estates.
