ORGANICALLY FARMED
WINE ADVOCATE 95 POINTS - "Vintner Riccardo Campinoti says he makes the wines 'that I want to drink.' The Le Ragnaie house style is classical, prizing transparency and freshness. His 2020 Brunello di Montalcino (with the white label) represents a blend of fruit from across various parcels. The bulk of the blend comes from the vineyards immediately adjacent to the winery at high elevations. It matures in Slavonian oak for 36 months with an extra year in cement. What stands out is the focus and energy of the bouquet with delicate berry and floral notes and even a touch of fresh mint. It boasts a polished texture. Production is 25,100 bottles." Drink 2025-2040. - Monica Larner
JEB DUNNUCK 94+ POINTS - "The 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino boasts a youthful red brick hue and offers a wonderful bouquet of aromatics already, with aromas of ripe cherries, fresh rosemary, cedar, and sweet incense. The palate is medium-bodied and snappy with ripe acidity, refined tannins, and a great mouthwatering finish revealing notes of ripe orange citrus and saline. It's very well-styled and hard to resist now, although it has the structure to age at a slow pace and improve over the coming 10-15 years."
