GIODO Brunello di Montalcino Dubbelmagnum 2021 i trälåda

James Suckling

The purity of fruit and elegance are so beautiful, perfumed and ethereal. it’s medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins and gorgeous black cherries, blackberries and brambleberries with a hint of cedar. Vibrant finish. From organically grown grapes. Better in 2028 and beyond.

This is the top-end wine from Carlo Ferrini. The Giodo 2021 Brunello di Montalcino shows notable elegance and grace, especially in this classic vintage. It holds back at first, inviting patience, which bodes well for its long-term aging potential. There is complexity and beauty, and the wine clearly separates itself from the mid-tier "Prètto" bottling, as expected. Giodo moves with delicate footprints, and on returning to an open bottle the next day, the streamlined mouthfeel and lasting freshness became even more apparent, reflecting both the classic nature of the year and the maturity of the vineyards. Production has been significantly reduced to 8,500 bottles, compared to 16,000 bottles in 2020, with all fruit sourced from 20-year-old vines and selected barrique by barrique to create a wine of depth and precision.

Exuberant Mediterranean in style, it expresses its southern Italian origins without being overbearing; on the contrary, it's surprisingly delicate. The nose is kaleidoscopic and iridescent, with notes of wild strawberry dusted with oriental spices, red apple, and hummus, with a few floral notes. It has energy, grit, flavor, and weightless volume, with velvety tannins that lend an exceptionally elegant texture. Freer and less technical than usual, it's immediately captivating in its dynamics, yet possesses the right qualities to age beautifully. It finishes long, mellow, and creamy enough. Hands down, the best tasting Benvenuto Brunello 2025!

Pouring a bright red hue with orange-tinged edges, the 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino is high-toned and shy on opening, but it begins to unfurl with air, revealing mint, blood orange, redcurrants, cranberries, juniper, and brambly herbs. The palate is medium-bodied and beautifully structured, with a mouthwatering spine of acidity, fine, coiled tannins, and a long finish that stays lifted and precise. Tasted a second time, it comes together more completely, gaining seamless suppleness and deeper mineral underpinnings that carry through the finish. It’s a fantastic Brunello that should only improve for decades. Drink 2027-2050.

Falstaff

Bright, intense ruby with a delicate garnet sheen. Presents itself with an enchanting nose, full of ripe wild raspberries, dark cherries and blackberries, plus a hint of blood orange and watermelon. Polished attack and finish, opens up with plenty of fine tannins, great tension, very good drinking flow, the bottle is empty before you know it!

Rich and decidedly lively in its sensory profile, it displays a crisp red pulp
that evokes red plums, ripe strawberries, prunes,
currants, pomegranate, and hibiscus. In the background, the notes become citrusy with
a clear and vibrant presence of mandarin juice and pink grapefruit
mixed with magnolia and gardenia flowers. There is certainly no lack of dark and
deep tones typical of the vintage, with distant nuances of juniper
berries and black tea leaves. Full body, well-cured fine-grained tannins
and a voluminous and structured finish.

Gambero Rosso

Best Red Wine of the Year (2026 Gambero Rosso Guide to Italian Wines): Throughout his career, Carlo Ferrini has created an impressive number of
outstanding wines in many different regions of Italy. The 2020 Brunello, produced together with his daughter Bianca at their beautiful small estate in Montalcino, is in a way the “summa” of his experience with Sangiovese, his first love. Giodo is a great red wine that will enchant you with its complex and elegant bouquet, and its rich, deep and powerful yet poised body, and will seduce you with its harmony and finesse.

Jyllands Posten

"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.)"
