Giodo La Quinta IGT Toscana 2019 (JS 94)

James Suckling: 94 Points
(8/4/2021) "This is rich and perfumed on the nose with sweet-berry, rose-hip and sandalwood character. Full-bodied with a round, juicy palate of lots of ripe-berry and cedar undertones. Succulent and tangy at the end. Very enticing now. but will be even better in 2023."


La Quinta (“the fifth”) is, in fact, the fifth vineyard planted by Carlo Ferrini in Montalcino, and starting with the 2018 vintage, all his Rosso Toscana IGT bottles will bear that name as well.

Lying at an altitude of 400 meters, in soils rich in clay and pebbles with a southeast exposure, La Quinta fully lives up to its creator’s expectations: “To join our Brunello di Montalcino, I wanted another great expression of pure, elegant Sangiovese from this growing area, one with a more immediate character, but with the same superb elegance”. And, voilà, La Quinta 2018, the very embodiment of refinement, utterly true to its terroir.

100% Sangiovese.
Total production 8,000 bottles.
