RP-94
The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino is delicate and fine with aromas of wild cherry, licorice, grilled herb and pressed violet. It brings on more power to the palate with medium-rich concentration, pretty freshness and silky tannins. The fine tannic management stands out here, as does its contained alcohol. In a vintage that sees very high alcohol levels across the board, Le Ragnaie should be congratulated on maintaining a more moderate 13.5% alcohol content. Winemaking sees cement and large oak casks. Some 29,000 bottles were made.
Riccardo Campinoti and his team at Le Ragnaie have achieved impressive results with this group of new releases, especially where alcohol management is concerned. This estate enjoys high-elevation growing conditions—in fact, they have the highest vineyards in the entire appellation. This estate has been organic since 2005.
