Anyone who knows Carlo Ferrini knows that he thinks in clones. 15 carefully selected Sangiovese clones grow on the Podere Giodo in Sant'Angelo in Colle, in the south-west of Montalcino – a location that gives the Sangiovese warmth and maturity without taking away its tension. Ferrini has been working on his most personal project here since 2002, together with his daughter Bianca and cellar master Riccardo Ferrari since 2020. The Rosso di Montalcino is the latest addition to this family history – debut vintage 2024 and clearly positioned from the outset: not a stopgap, but an independent voice. 1.5 hectares at 400 metres, exposed to the south-east, medium-heavy, skeleton-rich soil, 6,600 plants per hectare. The vines are seven years old – young, but already precise in flavour. 13 days of maceration in steel, délestage at half time. Then 12 months of ageing, divided between wooden vats and cocciopesto amphorae, followed by cement. Six months in the bottle. 12,000 bottles – a generous quantity by Giodo standards, but a welcome one for the market.

Bright ruby red colour. Nose of cherry, small red fruits, flowers and fine spice. Fresh, flowing on the palate, with well-integrated tannins and a long, animating finish. Ferrini precision – from the very first bottling. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red with a violet lustre. Fragrant on the nose, cherry and raspberry as well as a hint of thyme. Great flow on the palate, animating acidity structure, well-integrated tannins, salty finish." Falstaff

"The first vintage ever of Rosso for the Giodo estate. A super-fresh, vibrant and fragrant wine with strawberries, red currants, violets, blood oranges and cinnamon on the nose. Medium-bodied, it shows freshness, soft and silky tannins and a smoky, savory finish." James Suckling
