Le Ragnaie Brunello di Montalcino 2004
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyThis is a stunning example of aged high quality sangiovese, showing beautiful now. Worn leather, worn wood, dried bitter cherry, streaks of amaro and a ripe heart of plum lure on this wine, a blend of vines up to 80 years, sourced from 3 sites. Though gentle on the palate, this is still very alive, with waves of iodine and blood carried by fine, long, very well integrated tannins. Excellent value to be found in Ontario for aged Brunello. Le Ragnaie was established in 2003 by the Campinoti Family. The organically farmed estate is divided into three parcels throughout Montalcino.Tasted: 10 March 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $145.00 | 750ml | consignment |
