Journey among Frescobaldi Cru wines

The article explains Cru as the expression of a defined vineyard and the combined influence of soil, climate, tradition and wine style. Giramonte is the Castiglioni example: it has been produced since 1999 from Merlot and Sangiovese. Sandy and clay soils formed on land once covered by the sea, an individual microclimate and strict harvest selection distinguish the vineyard and support continuity between vintages.
