Castelgiocondo RISERVA MAGNUM 1,5 L 2006

Castelgiocondo Riserva 2006 has a lovely intense ruby-red colour with very delicate garnet highlights. An olfactory examination first reveals fruity notes of blackberry and plum jam followed by coffee and the bark of cinchona calisaya. Salty and woody flavours emerge at the finish with hints of black pepper and mineral notes of graphite. Heavy, but fine and elegant tannins. Castelgiocondo is enduring with great equilibrium, a long and persistent finish.

Serving suggestions: Stews, plates of slowly cooked meats and aged cheeses
