The fruit for this wine comes from four unique vineyards at different altitudes, all located in different parts of the appellation. Le Ragnaies Brunello 2020 is a tour de force of Sangiovese that traverses the entire continuum of Sangiovese. It begins auspiciously with wild cherry, followed by pressed blue flowers, spices and floral earth. In addition to these typical tones, there are also cherry, blackcurrant and other classic Sangiovese flavours, followed by notes of dried mint and Mediterranean herbs in the impressive final. The lasting impression of this very special Brunello is its brilliance and purity, which we are particularly impressed by in the wines from Le Ragnaie every year. SUPERIORE.DE

"Very classic, broadly layered bouquet with sour cherries, including dark cherries, framed by fine ethereal-balsamic spice and elegant wood. Elegant and animating on the palate, super powerful presence with animating freshness, fine tannins, lots of Sangiovese freshness and spice." Weinwisser

"This wine is a blend of vineyards in the south-east of Montalcino and in the north, as well as from the high-altitude vineyards of the estate in the centre of the region, and is a panoramic rendition of the Le Ragnaie vintage. It is influenced by the estate's preference for an early harvest, emphasising freshness and a medium-weight frame. Pomegranate is nuanced by rose, tobacco and forest floor. It is light on its feet with an elegant, straightforward backbone and has just the right amount of flesh on its bones." Decanter

"The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is incredibly fresh, combining wild strawberry and sweet herbal tones with stone dust and a hint of wilted violets. It is a model of purity, soft and round, yet focused with ripe wild berry flavours that soak up saline minerals towards the end. The finish is long and colourful but still fresh, leaving a salty tang and edgy tannins to frame the experience." Vinous

"Le Ragnaie's style is classic and emphasises transparency and freshness. His Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is a blend of fruit from different parcels. The majority of the blend comes from the vineyards in the immediate vicinity of the winery at high altitudes. What stands out is the focus and energy of the bouquet, with delicate berry and floral notes and even a hint of fresh mint. It has a polished texture." Wine Advocate
