April 17, 2024 - Soave & Brunello (Anima e Cuore): I find Le Ragnaie's style a high-wire act that can be stunning in some vintages, disappointing in others. Unfortunately this falls into the latter category and I don't think the torrid vintage has done it any favours. Surprisingly tertiary and developed for a young wine- quite austere with notes of boot polish, baked earth/ terracotta, fruit a little lacking. I found a roughness, grip, rusticity to the palate - slightly unrefined, which is the opposite of what this estate tends to aim for.
