Description and technical sheet
The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG - Le Ragnaie is the most classic and representative expression of the winemaking philosophy of Riccardo Campinoti’s estate. It is a blended Brunello, made from Sangiovese grapes sourced from the estate’s different vineyards located throughout the Montalcino appellation: from Le Ragnaie and Vigna Vecchia at high altitudes, to Petroso in the historic area, and from Castelnuovo dell’Abate to Montosoli. This diversity of altitudes, exposures, and soils allows for a balanced, harmonious, and complete wine, where elegance, structure, and typicity coexist. The vineyards are managed organically, and in the cellar traditional practices are followed: spontaneous fermentations, gentle extractions, and long aging in large Slavonian oak casks for over 36 months. This Brunello is designed to reflect the authentic identity of Montalcino with a refined and profound style.
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG - Le Ragnaie: Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows an intense ruby red color with garnet reflections. The nose is broad and well-defined, with notes of ripe cherry, orange peel, dried rose, underbrush, and sweet spices. On the palate, it is elegant and vibrant, with fine, well-integrated tannins, good freshness, and a long, savory finish with a slight balsamic touch. A harmonious and authentic Brunello, combining territorial depth and drinkability.
