2019 Le Ragnaie Brunello di Montalcino Passo Del Lume Spento, Tuscany, Italy

Vigna del Lago is in the central zone of Montalcino with a southwest exposition and facing the sea. The vines here enjoy the highest elevation of any vineyard in Montalcino, at 530-600 meters above sea level, which allows for the harvest to begin in the second half of October. The vines vary between 5-40 years of age. The vines are surrounded by an oak forest, olive groves, and a small lake: an ideal habitat for animals and insects.

All four Brunello wines are fermented in concrete without selected yeast followed by a long maceration of up to 90 days and three years in large Slavonian oak botti. All wines are bottled unfiltered and certified organic in the vineyards and cellar.
