Everything at Giodo is underpinned by the concept of uncompromising quality. The entire process takes its start from the selection of clones and vines that are ideal for producing wines that are elegant, well-balanced and with impressive length. Every decision, every individual detail, whether in the vineyard or the winecellar, is of the greatest importance and merits full and meticulous attention. Those small details are the indispensable tesserae that compose the mosaic that Carlo Ferrini’s experience and expertise makes absolutely unique, the creation that his extraordinary passion has successfully handed on to his daughter Bianca. Giodo Toscana IGT, Carlo Ferrini 2016 130 Sangiovese – Toscana, Italy 96 James Suckling - 92 Robert Parker Crushed berries, orange peel and black cherries. So aromatic. Full-bodied, tight and reserved with tight and chewy tannins, which are so fine and polished. Love the energy in the fruit and acidity. Just a hint of bitterness. So good to drink now, but will age beautifully Giodo, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Carlo Ferrini 2013 280 Sangiovese Grosso – Montalcino, Italy 96James Suckling - 95 Robert Parker Plenty of dried fruit with figs and mushroom undertones. Full body, silky tannins and a ripe fruit, lemon rind and spice aftertaste. Condenses down to a refined and beautiful finish. Vivid acidity. Giodo, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Carlo Ferrini 2015 450 Sangiovese Grosso – Montalcino, Italy 100 James Suckling – 97+ Robert Parker This is a splendid Brunello, showing extraordinary purity of sangiovese character. Cherry and floral aromas and flavors. Full-bodied with incredibly integrated tannins that seem like they are not there. But they are and are comprehensive on the palate. Great depth and agility. Just floats on the palate. Magic carpet. Drinkable, to enjoy the magic, but needs three or four years to come around Alberelli di Giodo, Carlo Ferrini 2016 150 Nerello Mascalese – Sicilia, Italy 94 James Suckling - 94 Robert Parker This is the first vintage of famed Italian wine consultant Carlo Ferrini's own Etna wine, and it is a lovely debut. It has a charming nose of red cherries, vanilla, spice and white chocolate. A very Burgundian–style Nerello Mascalese with great purity and precision. Supremely elegant and seductive. 3 WINE BY THE GLASS (SOMMELIER SUGGESTION) WHITE LUXURY GLASS 5 OZ Gavi di Gavi Black Label DOCG, La Scolca 2018 24/120 Cortese – Piemonte, Italy Light straw with delicate light green reflections. Intense, long, continuous, persistent, from fruity to flowery depending on its steps of evolution. Wide, sapid, flint scents, almond and walnut notes at the end. Excellent as an aperitif or throughout the whole meal; beside the typical white wines pairing (fish, shellfish, seafruits ) it doesn’t fear the pairing with white meats, poultry and light roasted meats. Far Niente Estate 2018 30/150 Chardonnay – Napa Valley, California The 2018 Far Niente Chardonnay offers tropical aromas of citrus and melon layered with honeysuckle, perfume and toasted oak. A juicy entry transitions to a vibrant, yet oily, palate, which builds to a clean and refreshing finish. This wine is well integrated and beautifully concentrated, with lush citrus flavors and hints of minerals. Poggio alle Gazze, Ornellaia 2016 36/180 Sauvingon Blanc, Viogner, Vermentino – Toscana, Italy Poggio alle Gazze dell’Ornellaia, owes its elegant Mediterranean style to the Estate’s unique microclimate. This gift of nature allows Poggio alle Gazze dell’Ornellaia, with its predominance of Sauvignon Blanc, to display a firm structure and ripe fruit while maintaining great finesse. 4 WINE BY THE GLASS (SOMMELIER SUGGESTION) RED LUXURY GLASS 5 OZ Giodo Toscana IGT, Carlo Ferrini 2014 29/130 Sangiovese – Toscana, Italy Lush cherry and blackberry fruit, leather, spice and tannins that provide zest and tone to this sensational Tuscan red. Alberelli di Giodo, Carlo Ferrini 2016 35/150 Nerello Mascalese – Sicilia, Italy This is the first vintage of famed Italian wine consultant Carlo Ferrini's own Etna wine, and it is a lovely debut. It has a charming nose of red cherries, vanilla, spice and white chocolate. A very Burgundian–style Nerello Mascalese with great purity and precision. Supremely elegant and seductive. Madonna Nera, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2013 37/160 Sangiovese Grosso – Toscana, Italy The wine is intense, dense, tight, and deep in flavor with the cherry fruits of the Sangiovese bursting through along with spicy peppery flavours balancing the wine and pulling it altogether. Trefethen Vineyards 2017 37/160 Cabernet Sauvignon – Napa Valley, California Deep purple ruby in color, the wine has fruit driven aromas of plum, cherry and a hint of bay leaf. The palate is rich and concentrated with flavors of red fruits, baking spice and vanilla. 5 WINE BY THE GLASS SPARKLING Moscato d’Asti DOCG, Moncalvina, Coppo 2019 16 Moscato – Piemonte, Italy Villa Marcello, Prosecco Millesimato 2019 17 Glera – Veneto, Italy Brut Rose, Ferrari NV 23 Chardonnay and Pinot Noir – Trentino Alto Adige, Italy Brut La Francaise, Taittinger NV 27 Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier – Champagne, France Brut Rosé, Veuve Cliquot NV 36 Pinot Noir and Chardonnay – Champagne, France WHITE Falanghina Oro, De Conciliis 2018 13 Falanghina – Campania, Italy Donnaluna Fiano, De Conciliis 2018 14 Fiano Paestum – Campania, Italy Greco di Tufo La Passera, De Conciliis 2018 15 Greco di Tufo – Campania, Italy Ribolla Gialla, Dario Coos 2018 16 Ribolla Gialla – Friuli, Italy Chardonnay, Dario Coos 2018 16 Chardonnay – Friuli, Italy Pinot Grigio, Dario Coos 2018 16 Pinot Grigio – Friuli, Italy Sauvignon Blanc, Dario Coos 2017 17 Sauvignon Blanc – Friuli, Italy Trefethen Vineyards 2018 22 Chardonnay – Napa Valley, California 6 ROSÉ Cretum IGT, Poggio Bonelli 2018 15 Sangiovese – Toscana, Italy RED Chianti Bacco Felice, Canto alla Moraia 2018 14 Sangiovese– Toscana, Italy La Pietra IGT, De Concilis 2017 15 Anglianico, Barbera and Primitivo –
