Le Ragnaie begins with a masterclass in patience: a 2004 Brunello di Montalcino in magnum, now 22 years old, representing Riccardo Campinoti’s vision since he acquired the estate in 2002. Across 15.5 organic hectares spanning three distinct Montalcino sub-zones, Campinoti practices traditional winemaking—concrete fermentation, up to 90 days of maceration, 36 months in Slavonian oak, unfiltered—to honor the 2004 vintage, one of Montalcino’s legendary years. This wine embodies the region’s promise: elegance and purity balanced with structure, a Brunello that proves age is not decay but deepening. The magnum format, the legendary vintage year, and two decades of cellar evolution make this an unmissable entry into Le Ragnaie’s world.

"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

Riccardo Campinoti farms the highest-altitude vines in Brunello—up to 655 meters—where regulations say you can't go. His Troncone Sangiovese, an IGT for refusing to play by the rules, has cranberry brightness and stony minerality that prove his point perfectly.

Serve with slow-braised beef short ribs, wild boar ragu, or aged Pecorino Romano—the wine’s tertiary complexity and evolved tannins reward time and richness.

Tasting Profile


Gregory Gouges is a very fortunate young man. He has free rein at one of the most historic domains in all of the Cote D'Or. There is a brand new state of the art gravity driven cuverie that his predecessors built after years of careful planning. The family vineyards encompass some of the greatest terroirs in Nuits Saint Georges including the 3.5 hectare Monopole "Clos des Porrets Saint Georges". The parcels are large and the vines are mature and in fantastic health.

The style at Gouges has been updated. For years, heavy extraction resulted in tannic wines that took many years to come around. If you ever come across old bottles, they are fantastic. Under Gregory Gouges, the tannins are managed more carefully and the wines are now made in a style with greater emphasis on finesse and fruit purity, allowing the greatness of Gouges' terroir to really shine.
