Product Notes

Frescobaldi Castello Nipozzano Mormoreto Toscana IGT is an illustrious Tuscan wine, celebrated for its exceptional quality. Primarily a blend of Cabernet and Merlot grapes, it flaunts a deep, rich ruby hue. The bouquet uncovers a symphony of ripe dark fruit, vanilla, and exotic spice notes that lead to an elegant, complex palate. Both mocha-infused and cassis flavours can be found harmoniously layered within its robust structure. Known for its significant ageing potential, this wine's velvety tannins and lasting finish make it an admirable and versatile accompaniment to sophisticated dinner parties or intimate gatherings.

Tasting Notes

Pleasantly fresh with a bouquet that hints of blackberries, blueberries and raspberries. On the palate, balsamic and minty notes balance out beautifully with hints of bergamot and jasmine. Spicy notes of clove and vanilla are just around the corner. Tertiary aromas of tobacco, cocoa powder and coffee bean are remarkably well-integrated. The finish is long and persistent.
