La Quinta is the fresher, lighter but no less elegant version of Carlo Ferrini's interpretation of Sangiovese. The purist beauty of small red fruits, including raspberry and summer cherry, combined with floral undertones, pepper and a hint of Mediterranean scrub combine to create a cool, aristocratic Rosso that expresses the signature of the Oenologistoenologist like no other! SUPERIORE.DE

"Sparkling ruby colour with a dark core. Fragrant, appealing nose, shows notes of cherries, pomegranate and orange peel, animating. With a juicy flow on the palate, opens with supple tannins, medium weight, fine cherry notes in the finish." Falstaff

"The 2022 La Quinta Toscana is youthfully coy and a bit reductive, blowing off a whiff of white smoke and stone dust to reveal dried black cherries and mentholated herbs. This impresses with its symmetry, softness and suppleness; its core of saline minerals perfectly offsets the ripe red and blue fruits within. Notes of tart blackberry and licorice linger as this finishes long and staining yet fresh, leaving a gentle tug of fine tannins that frame the experience beautifully." Vinous

"Vibrant red fruits of strawberries, red cherries and violets, followed by a blend of spices and fresh herbs. Medium-bodied, with fine and refined tannins and a pleasant acidity. An elegant and artful wine with beautiful purity and complexity. Already fascinating, but will continue to develop as it matures." James Suckling

"This wine is a bit of a provocation, because although it could technically qualify as a Rosso di Montalcino, it aims much higher and therefore wears its IGT Toscana designation very proudly. The Giodo 2022 La Quinta is made exclusively from Sangiovese from eight-year-old vines planted in front of Carlo Ferrini's stone-clad vineyard. Ferrini tells me that he took his inspiration for this bottle from Chianti Classico rather than Montalcino. The wine shows great volume and lots of bright primary fruit with cherry, fresh cranberry, incense and spice. This area has withstood the summer heat of 2022 because it is located on the eastern side of the appellation and is surrounded by cooling forests. This wine contains lots of beautiful fruit and the freshness of Sangiovese together with elegant, powdery tannins." Wine Advocate
