Only the healthiest, highest-quality clusters of Sangiovese are destined for Giodo’s Brunello di Montalcino. The wine’s maturation—a full two and a half years—takes place in French oak casks, followed by additional time in concrete vats and a further 18 months in bottle, a period of time that is essential for producing a Giodo Brunello di…
Sangiovese, this time from the fifth vineyard planted by Carlo Ferrini at Podere Giodo, goes to produce La Quinta; like the Brunello, it expresses its terroir with peerless refinement. Following fermentation, it matures twelve months, half in 500- and 2,500-litre oak casks, and half in cocciopesto amphorae, then receives a further bottle-ageing of at least…

The 2010 Guidalberto comes across as cool and inward in this vintage. Most recent Guidalbertos have been delicious upon release, but this is a wine that will need another year or two before it starts opening up. There is plenty of energy and vitality in the glass, but readers will need to be patient. Dark…
The 2018 Guidalberto, tasted from an approximate blend from barrel, is positively stellar. I can only hope that the bottled wine is as fresh, vibrant and nuanced as this sample. A rush of black cherry, plum, spice, leather and licorice graces the 2018 with striking depth and nuance. Light on its feet and deep, the…

Fresh and floral with black cherry and lavender aromas that follow through to a medium body with well integrated tannins, that spread beautifully across the palate. Turns silky and beautiful.

Made strictly according to the Sangiovese playbook, the Il Marroneto 2012 Brunello di Montalcino shows that exacting Sangiovese precision and personality. This is Alessandro Mori’s greatest talent. He takes this workhorse grape and gives it a platform to articulate its most hidden and intricate inner feelings and sentiments. This is a bright and very tight…
A gorgeous offering, this opens with enticing scents of ripe woodland berries, blue flowers, new leather and baking spice. On the elegantly structured, savory palate, taut, polished tannins accompany raspberry compote, ripe Marasca cherry, star anise and crushed rosemary. It’s already showing beautifully but will also offer years of fine sipping. Drink 2023–2029. Country: Italy…
Alessandro Mori’s wines are easy to spot in a blind tasting thanks to the soaring intensity and vibrant Sangiovese aromas they display. They are truly one of a kind.

Sweet raspberries are enhanced by lifted violets and licorice. Quite a classic profile, with a full body and firm, chalky tannins on the mid-palate. Yet it’s plastic and dynamic, with woven acidity and a savory, cherry fruit finish. Good extraction for aging, with slightly rustic but not bitter tannins. Drinkable now, but best from 2028….
