Le Ragnaie Description
Le Ragnaie is known for its elegant, terroir-driven wines that stand out in this Tuscan powerhouse category. Le Ragnaie Ragnaie Vigna Vecchia Brunello di Montalcino is fresh on the palate with notes of crunchy cherry, orange peel, licorice, wild herbs and crushed stone. Terrific balance and length.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
The V. V. stands for old vines. With fruit from 50-year-old plants, the Le Ragnaie 2017 Brunello di Montalcino Ragnaie V. V. is one of three black-label special selections made by this estate. Instead of a Riserva program, Le Ragnaie focuses on territorial identity and single-vineyard expressions. This pretty wine shows the distinctive concentration that comes from the old vines, but that is also a result of the hot growing season. Dark fruit, rose, spice and baked clay emerge from this medium to full-bodied Brunello. Production is 3,800 bottles. Best after 2024.
