Frescobaldi CastelGiocondo Brunello di Montalcino 2020

CastelGiocondo is het Brunello-bolwerk van Frescobaldi, een historische cru in Montalcino waar één wijn het landschap, de hoogte en de bodem in lagen weet te vangen. Deze Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is het visitekaartje van het landgoed, volledig gemaakt van Sangiovese die hier zijn kracht en finesse vindt. Wat maakt Frescobaldi CastelGiocondo Brunello di Montalcino 2020 zo bijzonder? De combinatie van handgeplukte Sangiovese, de mozaïek van galestro, klei en Pliocene zand en een lange rijping op hout en fles geeft een Brunello met gelaagde complexiteit en een indrukwekkende balans.

Wijngaarden en regio

De wijn komt uit Toscane in Italië, uit de prachtige gemeente Montalcino, van het landgoed CastelGiocondo aan de zuidwestkant van het dorp. Hier profiteren de Sangiovese-stokken van verschillende expositierichtingen en een gevarieerde bodem van galestro (verkruimelde mergel), klei en Pliocene zand, wat de wijn een bijna eindeloze schakering aan nuances meegeeft. De wijngaarden liggen op hellingen met ideale zoninval en goede afwatering, waardoor de druiven volledig en gezond kunnen rijpen. De oogst van 2020 verliep onder gunstige omstandigheden, met voldoende waterreserves uit 2019, een warme maar evenwichtige zomer en een droge, heldere oogstperiode die zorgde voor gezonde trossen met mooie fenolische rijpheid.

Vinificatie en rijping

Bij aankomst in de kelder ondergaat elke partij Sangiovese een zorgvuldige selectie op sorteertafels, zodat alleen de beste druiven worden vergist. De alcoholische gisting vindt plaats in roestvrijstalen tanks bij gecontroleerde temperatuur, met regelmatige overpompen in de eerste dagen om kleur, geur en fijne tannines uit de schillen te halen zonder de wijn hard te maken. Na de gisting rijpt de wijn in houten vaten, waar hij de tijd krijgt om structuur, geur en smaak in balans te brengen. De opvoeding op hout, gevolgd door verdere flesrijping, zorgt ervoor dat CastelGiocondo pas na vijf jaar kelderrust als Brunello di Montalcino wordt vrijgegeven, op het moment dat frisheid, kracht en tertiaire aroma’s elkaar mooi vinden.

Druivensamenstelling

Sangiovese – Tenuta CastelGiocondo, Montalcino
De wijn is 100% Sangiovese van geselecteerde percelen op CastelGiocondo, wat zorgt voor de kenmerkende combinatie van rijp rood en zwart fruit, florale tonen, stevige maar verfijnde tannines en een uitgesproken minerale signatuur.

Proefnotities en serveertips

CastelGiocondo 2020 heeft een intense, briljant robijnrode kleur. In de neus opent hij met florale tonen, gevolgd door aroma’s van kleine rode en zwarte vruchten zoals framboos, zwarte bes en granaatappel, waarna tertiaire en kruidige indrukken opkomen van onder andere zoethout, nootmuskaat, groene theebladeren en koffiebonen. In de mond is de wijn vol en omhullend, met een verfijnde, dichte tanninestructuur en een duidelijke mineraliteit die het gehemelte strak houdt. De afdronk is lang en persistent, waarbij fruit, kruiden en balsamische accenten nog lang nawerken. Schenk deze Brunello di Montalcino bij 16 tot 18 °C en combineer hem met gerechten als bistecca alla fiorentina, langzaam gegaarde stoofschotels, lamsrack of wildgerechten, of met rijpe harde kazen wanneer je zijn gelaagde structuur en lengte volledig wilt uitdiepen.

I am hopeful this new version of Pocket Hose is better built than earlier versions!
I have not had great luck with earlier versions of Pocket Hose products! I have had leaks, hose blowout holes, leaks at the facet connector and sprayer difficulty! BUT, I wanted to give the new Copper Head Hose a try. I like all the new features and feel they have made good enhancements to the hose quality! I have had the new hose for a week or so and it appears to be of better quality than previous versions. The hose is working great and I am hopeful it will last longer than the last ones. However the product is expensive and this will be my last purchase of Pocket Hose if I have ANY issues in the future. I will update my review in the future!

love the pockets hose!!!
Style: Ballistic, Size: 75 FT
I usually don't do reviews but the pocket hose is so great I had to . It works so well, flexible , not heavy or cumbersome to move about as it curls back to water spigot when water turned off after using!!! Fun to watch I want to throw all my other hoses out !! I am elderly and this is so light and easy for me to use. I first saw as an add on TV and was skeptical! So happy I gave it a try!! We now have2 -5oft and 1 -75 ft. Try it you'll like it !! I promise!! \

Not as durable as advertised.
This hose is not as durable as advertised. First time I used it and didn't work. The hose itself was slit or had some other issue with the band inside because water leaked through the hose and did not reach the nozzle. Update: I wrote to the manufacturer of the hose, Pocket Hose, regarding the defective hose. On May 30, 2026, they agreed to replace my hose under their warranty. On June 2, 2026, I received an email from them stating they recently updated their warranty policy to 30 days, and my notice was outside their 30-day warranty period. I then received an email from the seller of the hose, Bulb Head offering me a full refund on the hose. Something the manufacturer would not do. All I wanted was a replacement. I am changing my rating for the seller to 5 Stars for standing behind the sale of their product. Thank you, Bulb Head!

Great hose
Style: Regular, Size: 150 FT
I love these hoses. Length:I have a 50’ for the front yard and 150’ hose for the backyard. Nozzle is perfect for watering flowers, garden or great for washing the car. Flexible: Lightweight and so easy to move around. Turn off the water at the house and let it drain out the nozzle. Doesn’t take long to drain and return to original length. Durability is excellent. Connectivity is so easy.

Great product until it split
We bought the pocket hose 100’ copperhead expandable garden hose through Amazon from Bulbhead April 2025. We love the fact that it is light, retracts, doesn’t kink and came with a versatile nozzle. However, 13 months later, the hose split overnight, leaking an unknown amount of water to the street and eliminating water pressure in our house. Once we found the leak, we contacted the company. We were told there was a 30 day warranty and that our product was no longer covered. I’m not sure what product would break down in 30 days! I was asked if I could be compensated at all and they said no, there are discounts on the website. I will never buy this product through this company again as their customer service is lacking. Nothing was offered as a personal discount for their defective product.
