Description

Ripe al Convento Castelgiocondo by Marchesi Frescobaldi is an elegant Brunello di Montalcino, made from Sangiovese grapes grown in a small, beautifully exposed vineyard on the highest hills of the estate. It presents a brilliant ruby red color in the glass. On the nose, it develops a broad and complex bouquet, with fruity aromas of cherry, blackberry, wild berries, and pomegranate. These are complemented by pleasant floral notes, fresh and crisp, along with tertiary aromas reminiscent of graphite, bitter cocoa, and tobacco. On the palate, it impresses with its full and harmonious flavor, powerful yet well-balanced, supported by dense and elegant tannins. Ripe al Convento by Marchesi Frescobaldi is an extremely refined wine, boasting a solid structure and a remarkably long aromatic persistence. With excellent aging potential, Ripe al Convento pairs beautifully with roasts and stews, flavorful pasta dishes, Tuscan pecorino cheese, and Tuscan cured meats.
