Tenuta di Frescobaldi Castiglioni 2023

Tenuta di Frescobaldi Castiglioni 2023 is a refined Tuscan red that brings together classic regional character and the long heritage of the Frescobaldi family. Sourced from one of the estate’s most historic properties, it offers a polished expression of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Sangiovese, shaped by centuries of winemaking tradition dating back to the 1300s.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby hue with lively youthful brightness. The nose is lifted and inviting, with notes of ripe dark berries, cherry, subtle spice, and the kind of earthy, herbal nuance that gives Tuscan reds their unmistakable identity. On the palate, expect a balanced and supple wine with good structure, fresh acidity, and smooth tannins. The blend brings together the dark-fruited depth of the international varieties with the savory edge and vibrancy of Sangiovese, making it enjoyable now while still having the potential to evolve gracefully over the next few years.

Production
Tenuta Castiglioni is one of the historic estates of the Frescobaldi family and has long been tied to the Tuscan terroir. The vineyards benefit from Tuscany’s warm days, cooling influences, and well-drained soils, which help preserve freshness while encouraging full flavor development. The wine is crafted from a blend of hand-selected grapes and vinified to capture both fruit purity and regional expression.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with grilled red meats, roast chicken, lamb, game, and Tuscan-inspired dishes such as pasta with meat sauce or mushroom risotto. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting for 20–30 minutes is recommended if you want to open up the aromas and soften the structure.

Producer
Marchesi Frescobaldi is one of Italy’s most respected wine families, with a history that spans more than seven centuries. Tenuta Castiglioni is especially significant as the place where the family’s winemaking story began, and the estate’s wines were once prized by the papal court and the English court of Henry VIII. Today, Frescobaldi remains a benchmark producer in Tuscany, known for combining heritage, quality, and a strong sense of place.
