Fresh from Frescobaldi
Seven centuries is a long time to be in business and the Frescobaldi family continues its 700+ year wine production in Tuscany, which began in the early 1300s. The family's wines have formed commercial contracts with European courts, the Papal Court in Rome and have been widely exported around the world for centuries. Now, we have a growing range of Frescobaldi wines available at Regional Wines & Spirits, including wines from great historic estates such as Castello Nipozzano and Tenuta Perano.
These famous Tuscan wine estates are home to high quality Sangiovese grapes (and a mix of others), which go into these two outstanding expressions of Tuscan red wine.
In April this year, Frescobaldi will be Regional Wines & Spirits winery of the month.
In the meantime, explore the flavours here, by purchasing online or in store. We will be adding a bunch of other beauties from Frescobaldi. Watch this space.
