Podere Giodo Brunello Di Montalcino

Carlo Ferrini is one of Italy’s best-known winemakers, boasting a professional career spanning more than 30 years throughout the peninsula, from Trentino in the north to Sicily in the south, and “wine offspring” that are among Italy’s most prestigious labels. In 2002, with the purchase of his first plot of land, Ferrini launched a new adventure, and a fresh challenge, but one that was really the fulfilment of a long-held passion.

WINEMAKER NOTES

Giodo is an enological project and, at the same time, a message to the wine world on behalf of the Sangiovese grape varietal and its highest expression with Brunello di Montalcino. Brunello di Montalcino is, in fact, one of the most appreciated and most important wines around the world, as represented on our label.

TASTING NOTES

Elegant, with vibrant acidity, featuring cherry, leather, tobacco, and menthol flavors. This is ripe and exudes plum, tobacco and mineral aromas and flavors, accented by spice. The oak adds an extra element of tannins but integrates more fully with air.  Firms up as the tannins flex on the finish, which persists with iron and tea accents. Fresh, intense and long.
