Tasting Notes

Though Le Ragnaie has only produced this ‘Miscellaneous wine’ in the last few years, blending red and white grapes is certainly part of the traditional Chianti 'recipe'. Miscelone is 60% red grapes (Sangiovese and Canaiolo) and 40% white grapes (Malvasia and Trebbiano), sourced from the same vineyard, coharvested and cofermented in concrete, and then aged for 6 months in concrete. This chillable, non-intervention red opens with a wall of reduction that quickly blows off into red cherry, liquorice, leather, and an ample wash of sea salts. Tannins are sandpaper fine and acidity is nervous to a taut, brisk finish. Charmer; chill and drink now and over short term.
