Very easy to place your order, prices are good, confirmation and shipping information is quick and the order arrives correct and usually a day sooner than expected. What more could you ask for. I am a new customer and just received my third order. As long as customer service and pricing remains at this level, I have no reason to go anywhere else for my liquor and wine purchases.

They were always perfect, except that one time they sent me white wine instead. Also, they still owe a bottle of southern comfort, when the bottle cap was stripped and would just turn around with never coming off.

2017 Giodo Brunello di Montalcino (750ml)

Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy

B-21 Top Recommendation
Read More

Anyone who describes himself as a “Sangiovesista” is decidedly serious about Tuscany’s revered grape, but when that Sangiovese devotee is renowned enologist Carlo Ferrini, be assured there is some equally serious Brunello di Montalcino backing it up. From the secluded hillside vineyard producing “Montalcino’s best kept secret” according to the Wine Spectator’s Robert Camuto, the sensational 100 pt. 2016 Giodo Brunello di Montalcino offers true Sangiovese perfection from an outstanding vintage, its aromatic ripe, earthy fruit elegantly balancing mouthwatering acidity and silky-smooth, polished tannins, already delivering enjoyment today and promising to age beautifully for a decade or more.

Bordered by mature trees and ancient cypress with stunning views of the towering Monte Amiata, the nearly hidden Podere Giodo estate spans 5.5 hectares of organically farmed vineyards at 300 to 400 meters above sea level, its newly built contemporary stone buildings and state of the art winery seamlessly blending into the garden-like hillside setting. Boasting an A-list of customers in the region including Barone Ricasoli, Fonterutoli, Talenti and Romitorio, winemaker Carlo Ferrini quietly started his personal Montalcino project in 2002, clearing 2.5 hectares of mostly oak forest on mineral-rich slopes and planting it with specially selected, low yielding Sangiovese clones for the Brunello, its optimal southeast exposure protecting the vines from the intense afternoon sun. Produced only in top vintages like 2016, declared one of Brunello’s “greatest ever” by James Suckling, Ferrini practices green harvesting to further reduce yields, dropping about 40% of his crop in August and hand harvesting the first selection for the Brunello in September. Utilizing short macerations to minimize extraction and fermenting in stainless and concrete with native wild yeasts, the sophisticated 2016 Podere Giodo Brunello was aged for 30 months in large 500 and 700 liter oak casks, followed by additional time in concrete vats and now over 2 years in bottle, yielding an exquisite, brightly focused Brunello described as “a career defining wine” by the Wine Advocate’s Monica Larner, a remarkable feat considering Ferrini’s 30 plus year legacy as one of Tuscany’s greatest consulting winemakers.

Initially trying to keep Podere Giodo under the radar so as to not compete with his high-profile clients, perfection is simply hard to keep under wraps, the meticulously crafted 100 pt. 2016 Giodo Brunello di Montalcino reflecting Carlo Ferrini’s uncompromising devotion to “celebrating the pleasures of Sangiovese” according to Inside Bordeaux’s Jane Anson and now with increased demand, requiring quick action for collectors to secure their cellar-ready stash in original wooden cases of six.

A full-bodied Brunello with lots of plums and cherries, as well as orange-peel character. It’s creamy and round-textured. Soft and chewy tannins. Shows the warmth and ripeness of the 2017 vintage. Drink after 2023.

96 points, James Suckling (Aug 2021)

Carlo Ferrini's Giodo 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is plush and softly layered, and the wine has plenty of fiber and cherry to absorb the power that comes naturally to this vintage. This is Carlo's seventh leaf (or vintage) of Brunello from his family-run estate, and it's nice to reflect on the consistency of style and quality achieved since this new venture emerged. Giodo has the advantage of coming onto the scene when international regard and understanding for Brunello was highest (think back to the excellent 2010 vintage). Carlo has not disappointed. He brings us a modern, forward-thinking wine that is rooted in local Tuscan winemaking tradition (just think, one of his first stints was at Soldera Case Basse years ago). This vintage brings home that signature Giodo personality with black cherry, dark fruit and elegant earthy end notes. At about 18-years-old now, his vines are entering an interesting chapter of their lifespan, and we can expect more great results from this estate. Production for this wine is 12,000 bottles.

95 points, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate (Feb 2022)

After the amazing last few years that Giodo has enjoyed, the 2017 vintage doesn’t quite have the same levels of succulence but this is still an exceptional wine. Clear smoke on the first nose, aromatically rich, with touches of rosemary, saffron and white pepper alongside red cherry and raspberry fruit. Hugely concentrated, the tannins take a grip on your palate and tug the fruit back as it moves through the palate, keeping your focus engaged. 30% lower yield than normal. This will be released in September but not available for immediate delivery because it is finishing up its two years in bottle ageing (after three years in barrel). Carlo Ferrini winemaker.
