Vintage ReportThe 2007 harvest concluded on October. Overall high quality of the fruit brought in resulted in an excellent vintage as well. The first grapes demonstrated that the 2007 harvest was to be outstanding, the natural culmination of a good growing season. The spring months were mild, with scarce rain and little heat stress, conditions that produced sound, healthy fruit on the vines. CastelGiocondo Brunello di Montalcino presents a clear ruby red with garnet highlights. Pronounced notes of blackberry elegantly accompanied by floral notes such as violet. The nose is complex and well-blended: spicy notes of black pepper and clove, tobacco and leather, and jus de viande reflect well the evolution of the wine. Resonating tannin textures, mellow structure with a long and elegant finish.
