About The Producer
Reviews
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Made in limited release, La Fortuna's 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Giobi is an intense and deeply layered expression of Sangiovese that shows a profoundly beautiful side of the grape. The bouquet is redolent of dark fruit, plum and wild cherry on a first wave. A second and third wave of aromas continues with crushed flower and rose, earth, tobacco and flinty stone. This wine is polished and long in terms of mouthfeel. I tasted bottle 443 of only 2,000 in production.
James Suckling
The peach and orange-peel character to the cherry aromas really make this irresistible on the nose. Medium to full body, round and caressing tannins and a beautiful finish. Delicious now.
Vinous
The bouquet of the 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Giobi reminds me of picking fresh strawberries, showing all of the greenery, moist dark soil, spicy herbal tones, and stony minerality that would cake my hands as a child, slowly evolving to add a note of sweet plum to the mix. On the palate, silky, seemingly waxy textures give way to pretty red berry fruits, saline-minerals, and spice, enlivened by zesty acids, as purple inner floral tones develop. The finish is long and perfumed with lingering sweet spice, ripe red fruits, and just a hint of fine tannin.
Wine Spectator
Mint, licorice and tar aromas and flavors mark this burly red. Rustic in style, with ample fruit and dry tannins that leave an astringent feel. Best from 2024 through 2040. 100 cases made, 70 cases imported.
