Frescobaldi Giramonte 2004
Tuscany, ItalyBig spicy, vanilla, plum jam, meaty, black cherry, peppery, mocha, cardamom and tobacco nose with a floral, orange peel note. Rich, ripe, fat and round with good acidity and smooth, grainy tannins, this mostly merlot blend with a touch of sangiovese has an enticing tobacco, black olive, black cherry, barnyard, licorice, plum flavours with a vanilla mocha finish. One of the best yet from Frescobaldi, and easily among a short list of the very best merlot made in the world.
