Frescobaldi Castelgiocondo Ripe Al Convento Riserva Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Cherry, raspberry, plum and floral aromas and flavors are the hallmarks of this silky yet solidly built red. Comes together nicely on the persistent aftertaste, where mineral and wild herb accents emerge. Offers terrific balance, freshness and harmony. Best from 2027 through 2045. Score – 97.
