Twenty-two years into its evolution, this 2004 Brunello has settled into a state of refined grace—exactly what the vintage promised. The 2004 harvest delivered balance and purity that time has only deepened, with a wine of perfectly perfumed elegance and refined tannins that seem to dissolve on the palate. Now is the moment to experience how a great Brunello ages without losing vitality.

"The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino was made during a very early stage in the estate's life when macerations were short and the preference for cooperage leaned more on new oak, which was 70% on this vintage. The 2004 has developed into a powerful, tannic, but also fully mature wine. There is good depth to the black cherry, smoke and mocha flavors, but the wine's best days are in the past. Readers who taste the 2004 today will find a wine made in a style that is starkly different from the approach proprietor Riccardo Campinoti uses today." —Antonio Galloni

More about Le Ragnaie

Le Ragnaie is the greatest thing to emerge in Montalcino so far this century. It may be the greatest thing to emerge in Montalcino since the rise of Soldera, with whom they have much in common: an uncompromising adherence to tradition (aging exclusively in large neutral Slavonian oak barrels, ultra-long macerations), natural farming, minimal intervention in the cellar, and excellent terroir. But there is one way in which Le Ragnaie stands apart from Soldera that makes their wines even more extreme: high altitudes. Le Ragnaie farms the highest altitude vines in Brunello di Montalcino! Some vineyards are so high up that they are above Brunello di Montalcino's legal limit of 600 meters.
