Description

Castello Nipozzano Mormoreto Toscana is a celebrated Super Tuscan wine from Frescobaldi's renowned Nipozzano estate in Tuscany. First crafted in 1983, Mormoreto is a powerful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, cultivated on the prized Mormoreto vineyard within the Chianti Rufina area. This wine is a modern expression of the Tuscan terroir, blending international varietals with traditional winemaking practices. Aged in French oak for 24 months, Mormoreto is a rich, structured, and complex wine that offers depth and elegance, with remarkable aging potential.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Deep garnet with ruby highlights, indicating intensity and maturity.

NOSE:
The nose is layered and intense, with aromas of dark berries such as blackcurrant and blackberry, mingling with plum, dried cherry, and nuances of violet. Complex earthy notes of leather, cedar, and tobacco enhance the bouquet, alongside subtle hints of graphite, spice, and dark chocolate from oak aging.

TASTE:
Full-bodied and opulent, Mormoreto opens with flavors of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and blueberries. This core of dark fruit is complemented by savory notes of leather, espresso, and licorice, along with fine-grained tannins that lend structure and depth. Balanced acidity adds freshness, and the oak aging brings in a silky, well-integrated texture with lingering notes of vanilla, cocoa, and spice.

FINISH:
Exceptionally long, with a sophisticated interplay of fruit, earth, and spice, highlighting the wine's depth and aging potential.

Food Pairing

The richness and depth of Mormoreto make it ideal for pairing with hearty and flavorful dishes:

Grilled or roasted red meats, including ribeye, venison, and lamb
Game dishes, particularly wild boar, duck, and rabbit, especially with truffle or mushroom sauces
Rich pasta dishes with meat-based sauces, such as pappardelle al cinghiale (wild boar ragu)
Aged cheeses like Pecorino Toscano, Parmigiano-Reggiano, or Gorgonzola
Tuscan specialties such as bistecca alla Fiorentina and beef stew
