2012 Le Ragnaie, Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany

48 Hour Special ~ First Come, First Served!

Why are we so fond of Le Ragnaie's 2012 Brunello? It's not because the vineyards are the highest in all of Montalcino. It's not because much of the fruit comes from vineyards that touch Soldera (which retails for $600 per bottle). It isn't because it is 100% organic. And it isn't because the winery just landed on this year's Wine & Spirits Top 100 list.

It is because the depth and finesse of this Brunello cannot be replicated anywhere else in Montalcino. We've loved this wine for years for its limestone based soil and mountain terroir, which together produce a mineral driven Sangiovese with a multi-layered bouquet and lasting finish.

Wild strawberry, fresh picked cherries, aged leather, clove, tobacco leaf and sandalwood are just a few of the ethereal notes. Wonderful acidity on the long finish begs that this wine be paired with your favorite tomato based cuisine. Of course, there is the requisite charred steak!

We are setting this nationally low price of $49.95 for 48 hours so that all can enjoy it. You will not find a more competitive price on this beautiful Brunello that sells-out vintage after vintage.

Enjoy it now, enjoy it over the next ten years. Either way, you will be happy that you snatched some up.
