This Brunello is more savory than sweet, elegant and lifted with juicy red fruit, fresh acidity and fine, sinuous tannins. That's why it thrives best with dishes that have a bit of richness and structure to meet the tannins, without the food becoming too heavy and drowning out the wine's finesse. The fresh acidity and the light mineral nerve make it good with classic Tuscan dishes featuring herbs, mushrooms and ripe cheese tones, where flavor and body match each other in intensity.

About the wine
From the estate’s vineyards in Ragnaie, Petroso, Loreto, Fornace, and Cava.
More saline than sweet, Brunello 2021 opens with wild strawberries, rose petals, mint, and a hint of light smoke. It is expressive and elegant, with juicy red fruit, fresh acidity, and fine tannins that wrap around a slight mineral undertone. A subtle yet beautiful Brunello with depth and balance.
The wine is fermented with natural yeast in concrete and has undergone a long maceration before being aged for 36 months in large Slavonian botti. It’s a Brunello that already offers great drinking pleasure now and can easily be stored for several years to come.
Critic reviews
93Decanter
Still very primary, almost naive in aromas, Le Ragnaie's 'compilation' Brunello opens quietly with nutmeg and sarsaparilla. On the palate, however, it speaks deftly of its diverse plots in a harmonious whole.
94Antonio Galloni
Vinous
More savory than sweet, the 2021 Brunello di Montalcino blossoms in the glass with nuances of wild strawberry, rose petals, mint and white smoke.
94Robert Parker
The Wine Advocate
The Le Ragnaie 2021 Brunello di Montalcino delivers terrific character with an especially lively quality that gives the wine lift, tension and clear verticality.
