Description
Frescobaldi Lamaione Merlot 1992 is a distinctive Tuscan red that showcases Merlot at its most refined and expressive. Crafted by the historic Frescobaldi family at Castelgiocondo, it brings together richness, elegance, and the depth that made Super Tuscan-era Merlot a benchmark for modern Italian wine.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows an intense ruby-red color, still carrying impressive depth for a wine of this age. The bouquet is layered and evolved, with notes of ripe dark fruit, warming spice, dried herbs, and subtle earthy complexity.
On the palate, it is smooth and full-bodied, with a soft texture, balanced acidity, and a long, persistent finish. The wine’s structure suggests it has aged gracefully, and while it is already expressive, its mature character makes it especially rewarding to drink now.
Production
Made in Tuscany from selected Merlot grapes, Lamaione reflects the region’s warm days, cooling nights, and varied soils that help preserve freshness while encouraging full ripeness. Harvesting is typically carried out with close attention to grape selection, and vinification is designed to capture Merlot’s natural depth, texture, and aromatic intensity.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with game, lamb, roast beef, and mature cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C; decanting is recommended to help the wine open up and show its full aromatic complexity, especially after extended bottle age.
Producer
Frescobaldi is one of Tuscany’s most respected wine families, with a history dating back more than seven centuries and a major role in shaping the identity of the region’s fine wines. The Castelgiocondo estate in Montalcino is one of its most important holdings, known for quality-focused viticulture and for producing wines that combine tradition, structure, and elegance.
