Castello Vicchiomaggio FSM Merlot Super Tuscan Red Wine Bottle

Castello Vicchiomaggio FSM 2018

FSM (Federico Secondo Matta) is Castello Vicchiomaggio's flagship, Super Tuscan red wine made in strictly limited quantities. Named after John Matta's father, it is 100% Merlot sourced from vines grown on a steep south-east facing plot of the Vicchiomaggio estate. Matured in French barriques for 16 months and a further year in bottle before release the Castello Vicchiomaggio FSM has a rich and complex nose. Concentrated raspberry syrup and black cherry, then layers and layers of tertiary aromas like cedar, chocolate, herbs and graphite are to the fore. The palate is full, intense and well structured with balanced acidity and ripe tannins. The finish is long and refreshing.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
