2015 | Podere Giodo | Toscana Rosso

Beguiling bouquet of wild berries, notes of pepper and flowers; Pleasantly complex texture, the tannins close-meshed and in balance with the acidity, the extremely long finish on notes of ripe fruit and balsamic nuances.

Reviews:

• Raffaele Vecchione: The slight initial reduction creates the desired complexity and generates a multifaceted wine of an elitist nature. It stands with mixed floral and fruity notes that blend well with each other in the essence of red flowers, dehydrated cherries, wild strawberries, tangerine peel, grapefruit juice and dried marjoram. The background recalls the character of malolactic fermentation with notes of melted butter and white chocolate. Incredible on the palate with perfectly ripe tannins, relaxed and ample in the matrix which constitute the backbone on which the wine matrix stands and a bright and brilliant finish that remains taut and vertical throughout the progression. Delicious right away, it will express itself at its best from 2022 onwards.

Producer Information

Podere Giodo is a small wine producer in the Montalcino region of Tuscany. It produces a Brunello di Montalcino and a Rosso Toscano IGP from the Sangiovese grape variety grown here. A further red wine is made from a vineyard on Mount Etna in Sicily. The estate was founded in 2002 by Carlo Ferrini, the celebrated winemaking consultant. The winery lies midway between Sant’Angelo in Colle and Sant’Antimo. The estate name derives from those of Ferrini’s parents, Giovanna and Donatello. There are six hectares (15 acres) of vineyards. They are sited at around 300 meters altitude (985ft) on pebbly soils with a southeast exposure. Ferrini has selected the eight clones of Sangiovese which have most most impressed him over his career. Grape clusters are hand sorted before the crushed grapes go to the fermenters. These have been custom-made in stainless steel to preserve grape aroma.
