✨ Technical Specifications
The Frescobaldi family represents over 700 years of Florentine winemaking history, famously supplying wine to the Renaissance court, historic artists like Donatello, and the English Royal Family. While historically rooted in the rolling hills of Tuscany, the name Frescobaldi is synonymous with the pinnacle of Italian viticultural nobility. In the context of Piedmont, a region world-renowned for its dramatic alpine foothills, continental climate, and calcareous-clay soils, the focus shifts to the creation of deeply structured, elegant red wines. Traditional winemaking in this northern terroir emphasizes long maceration periods and patient aging in oak casks, capturing the intense aromatics, high acidity, and powerful tannins that define the region's prestigious red heritage.
