This Brunello is an unusually elegant and airy Sangiovese with red, fresh fruit, floral notes and a slender, energetic structure. The moderate, ripe tannins and the fresh acidity mean that it can accompany both rich, fatty meat dishes and lighter, aromatic dishes without becoming dominant. The tannins settle against fat and protein, while the acidity keeps heavy sauces fresh, so you get the best interplay with braised or oven-roasted meat, mushrooms and aged cheese rather than very delicate or sweet dishes.

About the wine

Passo del Lume Spento is the estate's newest parcel and simultaneously the highest Brunello plot in all of Montalcino, at a full 621 meters above sea level. The vineyard was first approved for Brunello in 2017, and here the Sangiovese vines are unconventionally planted in gobelet, growing freely without trellising.

The altitude and open growth form provide a particularly elegant and airy expression, with red, fresh fruit, floral notes, and a light, almost "uninhibited" feel that distinguishes the wine from Ragnaie's other Brunelli. There is a discreet natural wine vibrancy to the expression, without the wine losing purity or structure.

As always at Le Ragnaie, the wine is fermented with natural yeast in concrete and aged for 36 months in large Slavonian botti. The result is an extremely fine and upright Brunello with clarity, energy, and great aging potential. The production is very limited.
