Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Castelgiocondo 1990
750 ml Sangiovese Tuscany, Italy 1990
Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Castelgiocondo 1990 is a dry, full-bodied red from Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino, Italy), in the full, structured reds style. Tannins are very firm and acidity fresh; oak influence is noticeable. Those scales describe the wine when young; this is a 36-year-old bottle and its tannin and oak will have softened. Good with steak, lamb, venison, cheese board.
