GIODO Brunello di Montalcino 2020 i trækasse

Winewherever, Rasmus Christensen

Selvom det er en smule dumt at sammenligne Brunello med Bourgogne, så har GIODO alligevel en vis sammenhæng når det kommer til elegance og finesse. For det her er simpelthen så fint og svævende. Syrlige røde bær, rød vermouth, kamfer og et hint af krydderier. Den er så fin og sart i sit udtryk, hvilket gør den uhyrligt let at drikke, trods den store kompleksitet. Det her er ypperlig sangiovese og en piedestal i sig selv. Det her skal du prøve!

“The charismatic Brunello from the impeccable wine project of Carlo Ferrini, a scent that attacks on notes of red plum, splattered with geranium, with hints of taggiasca olive and eucalyptus. The taste has well amalgamated tannins to the fresh-savory component. It closes balsamic, with long aftertaste.

"Det er nye tider, og i dag er en blockbuster ikke, hvad det var. Denne er æterisk, let, elegant, en danseuse med et præg af urter, en smuk bitterhed a la vermouth, kaskader af små røde bær. Og faktisk lige til at drikke, hvis man har råd. Pris: 1300 kr. (v/ 6 fl.)"

Hedonistic and fascinating in its sensorial profile, it shows notes of strawberries, plums, mixed plums, lemon peel, chamomile, ginger, karkadè, marjoram, lime and lemon peel. Medium body, soft tannins and a finish of splendid gracefulness and anthocyanin and polyphenolic quality. Savory, slender and captivating. He shows serenity and composure while subtly showing that he is a top player. Drink now.

James Suckling

A more elegant than powerful Brunello here. Intensity and depth to this wine, with a fresh profile of strawberries, red cherries and peonies. A cinnamon note adds a touch of grace. The attack is graceful as well, with velvety tannins, medium to full body, persistent and refreshing acidity and a long, very flavorful finish. Elegant sample. Drinkable now, but it will last for decades with ease.

From vintner Carlo Ferrini, the Giodo 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is a balanced, medium-plus intensity wine that delivers excellent focus and sharpness. You get the generosity and softness of the vintage with Mediterranean tones of lavender and rosemary that frame a pretty core of cherry and blackcurrant. You also get a savory note of something that reminds me of fragrant tea leaf. The tannins are expertly managed, and the wine's texture builds steadily in the mouth. It shows superb phenolic ripeness with no sharp edges. The finish is fleshed out, contemporary and generous. Production is 16,000 bottles.

"MÅNEDSTEST: Brunello di Montalcino 2020 (toplistet: "Bedste vine") Overraskende rødfrugtet, præget af bitter negroni og appelsinskræl, hindbær, tyttebær og ribs og sure danske kirsebær, mens krydringen kommer fra nellike, sod og vanilje… temmelig sikkert fra fadene. Duften minder mig faktisk om en fadprøve hos en Côte de Nuits-producent. På én måde letløbende, slank og saftig, men på en anden måde hidsig og vranten i sin tannin, der trækker al viskositet i spyttet bort. Vellykket og helstøbt i en stil, der ikke råber sorthed og varme. Snydagtigt let… for det er den vitterligt ikke. Yes! 1299,95 kr. v/ 6 fl. | supervin.dk"

Carlo Ferrini and his daughter, Bianca completed harvest within the first 10 days of September with the estate’s brand-new vinification facility ready just in time. This is a laudable follow up to Giodo’s charismatic 2019 – and just as gorgeously expressive. A panoply of strawberry, arbutus berry, cardamom and porcini greets the nose. Precise and succulent, the palate is laden with lush apricot. Polished and intricately knit tannins are harmoniously embedded, giving effortless support, and all those captivating aromas and flavours resonate on the lingering finish.

Violet and glacial mint, rosemary and cloudberry, a sip of bright tannic matrix and exquisite fruit, continues for minutes to enchant the palate.

In the end the one to win the highest recognition and take home a perfect score was Giodo, a union of balance, class, elegance and quality of material… Expressive and rich in character, it shows concentration and structure in the notes of red plums, wild strawberries, cedar chunks, mandarin juice, lemon peel, chopped ginger and cracked celery. Wild thyme and marjoram set the secondary scene, but it is the character of fresh cherries, rose petals and grapefruit that delicately but presently bring grace and authenticity to the array. Medium-full body, perfectly ripe tannins of commendable beauty and an honest, subtle, enveloping finish. Exciting on the palate, you want to drink it, drink it and drink it again. Elegance and more elegance, in a wine that achieves perfection. A perfect wine, a divine wine.

Aromas of cedar, earth, tree bark, fruit tea, black tea and cherries. Then it turns to fresh and dried flowers. Medium to full body as it grows on the palate with superb fine tannins that run the length of the wine. It’s structured and powerful with great length. The acid, tannin balance is incredible. Very clear and transparent. What a wine.

When I tasted this wine with its maker, the celebrated enologist Carlo Ferrini, he told me that he put every last drop of love into the 2019 vintage. He believes it is the best wine he has made thus far at his relatively new Giodo project that started in 2009. Indeed, I would rank the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino as high as or even better than the best vintages made at this boutique estate. In my mind, they are 2010, 2016 and now 2019. This wine comes from a three-hectare plot with 19-year-old vines that are cared for obsessively. This amphitheater-shaped parcel called La Poderina is nestled deep within the forest on a steep slope that overlooks Monte Amiata in the distance. The soils are white in color with lots of rocks. This is a wine of depth and dimension, with vibrant energy, elegant balsamic notes and sweetly ripened fruit. The medium fruit weight is balanced against the wine's acidity and fine tannins.
It ends with floral notes of violet and iris.
