Product Overview
97 Points - Wine Advocate
"The Le Ragnaie 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Casanovina Montosoli (with 4,400 bottles created) comes from a celebrated site on the north side of the appellation at 300 meters in elevation. Montosoli is characterized by very special shale galestro clay soils that are brittle and friable. These conditions result in extremely focused aromatic characteristics of wet stone, blue flower and blood orange. That note of violet or lavender is exceptional. The wine finishes with a salty note, and don't underestimate that firm tannic bite. Only eight Montalcino estates have access to fruit from Montosoli." -ML, 11/21/24

"The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Casanovina Montosoli opens with an alluring bouquet that blends mentholated herbs and hints of camphor with crushed blackberries and a tinge of sour citrus. It's round and supple with dark red fruits and sweet inner herbal tones that ride a stream of fresh acidity. Fine tannins remain, yet the 2020 maintains fantastic freshness, finishing long with a resonance of licorice and tart blackberry that lingers on." -EG, Nov/2023

"There's density to this red, which lends a feeling of weight and power matched to lively acidity, providing tension and length. The combination is effective, leaving room for cherry, strawberry, blood orange and hibiscus flavors. Ends with sapidity and pliable tannins. Best from 2027 through 2043. 520 cases made, 100 cases imported." -BS, 3/19/25
