Giodo Brunello di Montalcino DOCG The Brunello is a wine of immense presence. It commands you from the first sniff; both grape material and vintage show their full class. This wine spends around 30 months in large casks (500-700 litre) followed by additional time in concrete before resting in bottle for a further 18 months.

Giodo La Quinta Toscana IGT La Quinta comes from younger vines (7-12 years old) and spends 12 months in 700-2500 ltr oak barrels. It is a brilliant wine; if ever there was a wine with the Carlo Ferrini stamp on it, the La Quinta would be it. Its vibrant, pure and elegant; it is the pure essence of Sangiovese.

The Il Blu Rosso IGT Toscana is the flagship wine from Brancaia. This is a modern expression of that revolutionary wine, the Super Tuscan. It is made to show what Brancaia is capable of producingan elegant, complex, and intense world-class wine. A blend primarily of Sangiovese and Merlot (a little bit of Cabernet in there too), the vintage dictates which variety takes the reins. Il Blu is a swaggeringly contemporary Super Tuscan, balancing power and elegance with the slightly skittish energy of a thoroughbred. Power and layer upon layer of concentrated fruit wild herbs and spice. A modern classic.
