Frescobaldi's Montesodi 1979 is a historic red wine obtained from pure Sangiovese grapes from the Montesodi cru in the Rufina area, one of the most elegant and long-lived expressions of Chianti Rufina, today in a phase of full evolutionary maturity, it presents itself in the glass with a deep garnet color with evident orange reflections and brick tones typical of a wine over forty years old, on the nose it is extremely complex and tertiary with aromas of dried rose, dried violet, cherry in alcohol, dried plum, tobacco, leather, sweet spices, wet earth, undergrowth and very developed balsamic and ferrous notes, on the palate it is silky and harmonious with fully evolved and soft tannins, a structure now perfectly integrated by time and a surprising residual freshness that still supports the sip making it lively and refined, the finish is long, ethereal and very multifaceted with spicy and floral returns, the 1979 vintage in Tuscany was balanced and allowed a good evolution over the long term of the most qualitative, it is recommended to serve it at around 18 degrees with great delicacy, avoiding excessive oxygenation so as not to disperse the more volatile aromas. It pairs best with delicate but tasty dishes such as stewed white meats, light roasts, lightly spiced noble game, mature cheeses or it can be enjoyed on its own as a meditation wine, resulting overall in an elegant, deeply evolved historic wine with great aromatic charm linked to the Sangiovese tradition.
