Le Ragnaie Rosso di Montalcino

From the elevated vineyards of Montalcino comes this brilliant 2021 Rosso from Le Ragnaie. Grown organically on steep slopes and aged with the care of a Brunello, it features 100% Sangiovese and was matured in large Slavonian oak and concrete for over two years. The result is a wine of finesse and energy: vibrant red-berry and wild cherry fruit, refined tannins, layered herbal undertones and a chalky minerality that whispers of Tuscany’s ancient soils. This is more than an everyday red—it’s approachable now yet built to age gracefully, letting you experience a true sense of place.

Nose: Lifted aromas of wild cherry, red currant and crushed violets interwoven with underbrush, dried herbs and subtle espresso notes.

Palate: Medium bodied and energetic—the juicy red-berry core is balanced by firm but elegant tannins and a fresh acid spine. Chalky minerality and faint licorice linger beneath.

Finish: The finish is clean yet persistent—notes of cherry pit, forest floor and granite-dust echo on the palate. A wine that invites the next sip and the next.

Pair this Rosso di Montalcino with Tuscan-style fare: slow-roasted pork shoulder with rosemary, wild boar ragù pappardelle, or a platter of pecorino, prosciutto and marinated olives. Its vibrant fruit and fine structure also make it excellent alongside grilled lamb chops or rosemary-infused roasted root vegetables.
