"Sourced from five plots in Le Ragnaie’s vineyards, this is impressively fresh and aromatically complex for a wine from the warm 2009 vintage. Red fruits edged with dried herbs, almonds, smoke and dark spices confidently build momentum even as the wine remains elegant and poised. This offers immense pleasure now, and will continue to improve for several more years."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
A powerful, age-worthy Sangiovese from the warm hills of Montalcino, requiring extended aging and prized for depth and longevity.
Tuscany's signature red, giving high-acid, savory wines of sour cherry, herbs and firm tannin. It is the backbone of Chianti, Brunello and many Super Tuscans.
