From a benchmark vintage, this wine shows purity and poise with red cherry, dried rose, and cool graphite minerality. Taut and lifted, it’s classic Le Ragnaie—ethereal now but built to age gracefully over 15–20 years.
Le Ragnaie is one of Montalcino’s most compelling estates, founded by Riccardo Campinoti and known for an artisanal, high-altitude approach to Sangiovese. The winery sits at one of the highest elevations in the appellation, with vineyards spanning diverse altitudes and expositions, including old vines in the fabled Montosoli cru. Campinoti practices organic viticulture, long macerations, and large-format aging to preserve purity and terroir. His wines express elegance over power, with a rare combination of structure, lift, and soulful depth that has captivated purists and collectors alike. Le Ragnaie is now firmly established among the new classics of Montalcino.
