Montevertine, under the Manetti family, is renowned for its steadfast dedication to traditional winemaking, employing native yeasts in cement vats and extended aging in large Slavonian oak botti to preserve the purity of fruit and terroir. Despite a warm 2022 growing season in Tuscany, timely late-season rains and Montevertine's skilled vineyard management yielded a wine of remarkable balance, concentration, and vibrant freshness. This ensures the 2022 vintage remains a taut, authentic, and compelling representation of Radda's unique Sangiovese.","brand":"Rosenthal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47216589734136,"sku":"18838","price":134.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8001\/0232\/files\/IMG_2646.jpg?v=1761765677"},{"product_id":"2020-le-ragnaie-brunello-di-montalcino","title":"2020 Le Ragnaie, Brunello di Montalcino","description":"Riccardo Campinoti's Le Ragnaie estate, certified organic, is dedicated to expressing Sangiovese Grosso's purity through rigorous vineyard stewardship and traditional winemaking, including concrete fermentation, extended maceration, and Slavonian oak aging.

While Lamole was once considered a marginal, difficult place to ripen Sangiovese, the Grassi family has a deep-rooted perspective, having farmed these sandstone terraces since 1600 (and organically since 2000). In today’s warming climate, this altitude has shifted from a challenge to a geological argument for purity and a new era for Lamole — Macigno sandstone, altitude, cool forest breezes, and diurnal swings slow ripening to a crawl. The Riserva is aged in 500-liter French tonneaux, chosen precisely because the family doesn't want wood flavor; they want Lamole flavor. Mountain herbs, bright red cherry, and violets. The 2019 vintage carries a lot of natural power, and this treatment helps tame its assertive tannins.
