Frescobaldi Lamaione 2018

A powerful and concentrated Merlot from CastelGiocondo, this wine opens with aromas of blackberry, black cherry, cocoa, coffee bean, balsamic herbs, and sweet spice. The palate is full-bodied and richly textured, offering layers of dark fruit, licorice, and toasted oak balanced by freshness and structure. Dense yet velvety tannins provide depth and elegance, leading to an exceptionally long finish marked by fruit, balsamic notes, and spice. 

Food Pairing: Braised short ribs, grilled ribeye steak, lamb shanks, wild mushroom dishes, and aged hard cheeses.
