Description:
2006 La Rasina Brunello Di Montalcino:
Intense aromas of blueberries, blackberries and fresh mushrooms. Full body, with chewy tannins and a fresh, clean finish. Character goes from minerals to flowers to wet earth. Goes tannic. Need another three to four years of bottle age to open. 94 Points - James Suckling
"La Rasina offers a beautifully dark and austere expression of Brunello with almost exaggerated intensity. The wine is dense, extracted and velvety with smooth cherry and vanilla backed by a firm tannic backbone. Drink after 2015." 94 Points - Wine Enthusiast
"The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is a deep, intense wine laced with black cherries, minerals, crushed flowers, and violets. This shows superb polish and elegance all the way through to the textured, expansive finish. La Rasinaâs Brunello is one of the more opulent wines of the vintage but all of the elements come together quite nicely, especially with some time in the glass. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022." 93 Points - Antonio Galloni - Wine Advocate
"This is ripe, bordering on flavors of dried cherry, plum and tobacco, with hints of raw meat and loamy, sun-baked earth. There are significant tannins that are slightly drying on the finish, but also a lot of sweet fruit. Needs time. Best from 2014 through 2025." 92 Points - Wine Spectator
WINE:
"The Brunello ages for 5 years, 2 of which are in oak casks and at least 6 months of refining rest in bottles. The color is ruby-red tending to garnet, scented nose of fruit and spice, the taste is robust and highly persistent. If it is well kept, it will last many years. It is suggested to open the bottle 2 hours before sipping the wine." -Winery

2005 FRESCOBALDI BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO CASTELGIOCONDO:
"From the historic Frescobaldi family that has been making wine since the 1300s, this concentrated and rich Brunello delivers a modern touch to a territory steeped in tradition. Aromas here include plump cherry, blackberry and cassis and all that fruit is supported by spice and light toast. Drink after 2012." 92 Points - Wine Enthusiast
"The 2005 Brunello di Montalcino is a pretty offering laced with fresh flowers, plums, dark berries and spices, all of which emerge gracefully from its mid-weight frame. Clean, minerally notes inform the long, delicate finish. This is a terrific effort from Castelgiocondo, especially considering production is a whopping 230,000 bottles. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020." 91 Points- Antonio Gallonio (Wine Advocate)
"Very pretty blueberry and light vanilla aromas, with hints of ripe dark fruits. Full-bodied, with round, velvety tannins that turn chewy, yet this is well-polished and the tannins are attractive, with a long finish. Best after 2012. 19,165 cases made." 90 Points- Wine Spectator
"Medium-deep red. Captivating, perfumed aromas of redcurrant, bay leaf and orange zest. Then bright and juicy on the palate, with lovely density to the red cherry, redcurrant and licorice flavors. The long finish features youthfully chewy tannins and a lingering floral perfume. The bright acids serve to extend the flavors on the finish, and though this isn't a hugely concentrated wine, I very much like its balance and fresh Sangiovese character." 90 Points- International Wine Cellar
ESTATE:
"Constructed in 1100 to guard the road from the port at Talamone to Siena, the castle has belonged to the Frescobaldi family since 1989. Already one of the top-quality producers of Brunello di Montalcino in the late 19th century, the tenuta of Castelgiocondo yields massively-structured wines of great complexity and balance."
"The estate lies on the southwestern slope of Montalcino, at elevations ranging from 180 to 400 metres, and comprises 815 hectares, with 230 hectares under vine. A total of 152 hectares are officially registered for the production of Brunello di Montalcino. The soils, given their various elevations, are diverse, and the climate is warm and dry, relieved by marine breezes: these are ideal conditions for producing very full-bodied, sturdily-structured and powerful wines that are, at the same time, characterised by remarkable finesse and balance. The wines produced at the Castel Giocondo estate are Castelgiocondo Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG, Castelgiocondo Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Campo ai Sassi Rosso di Montalcino DOC, and Lamaione IGT."
