Le Ragnaie Miscelone 2019

Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyLe Ragnaie produces this "Miscellaneous wine," though blending red and white grapes, historically part of the Chianti 'recipe'. Miscelone is 60% red grapes (sangiovese and canaiolo) and 40% white grapes (malvasia and trebbiano), co-harvested from a single vineyard co-fermented in concrete and then aged there for 6 months. Like the previous vintage, this non-intervention lighter-hued red opens with a wall of reduction, which blows off to reveal wild raspberry, dark cherry, dried red florals on a slighter palate, studded with mineral salts to the lingering finish. Tannins are finely firm, and acidity is bright. Best taken with a slight chill.Tasted: 05 November 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
