Podere Le Ripi Lupi e Sirene Riserva 2018
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
A bright delicate ruby red, that offers the typical transparency of Brunello. At the nose, it expresses a fine bouquet, where small red fruits are surrounded by earthy and iron notes. In the mouth, it offers purity and energy without it being excessive. A rich and linear body, so fluent and polished that will capture the total attention of all of your senses for a very long time.
Food Pairing: Serve with roasted meat, aged cheese, pizza, pasta, casseroles and grilled dishes.
Recommended Serving Temperature: from 16° to 18°C.
Ageing: 24 months aging in oak barrels and minimum aging of 18 months in cement vats
Grape variety: 100% Sangiovese
"An enticing blend of dusty rose, cinnamon and clove gives way to lifting traces of mint and dried strawberries as the sweetly spiced 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Lupi e Sirene blossoms in the glass. This is pure elegance, with velvety textures guided by fresh acidity and polished red and blue fruits complicated by a savory herbal thrust toward the close. The balance here is otherworldly. The 2018 finishes with unexpected vibrancy despite a web of fine tannins that grumble on as licorice notes slowly fade. Packed full of character and holding its power in reserve, the 2018 is a textural thrill ride. This is on a beautiful, yet slow, path to maturity." - VINOUS
Podere Le Ripi Sogni e Follia 2020
ROSSO DI MONTALCINO DOC
A deep ruby red with elegant orange shadows. In the nose, it expresses itself as a symphony of aromas going from an intense smell of cherry, strawberry, and violet to a fresh wild herbs aroma. For a Rosso di Montalcino, the wine is structured and refined, with a broad and smooth mouth and a long after taste.
Food Pairing: Serve with roast meat, aged cheeses, and pasta.
Recommended Serving Temperature: from 16° to 18°C.
Ageing: 24 months aging in big oak barrels, and eight month in cement
Grape variety: 100% Sangiovese
"The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino Sogni e Follia is wild and exotic, with a seductive blend of rose petals, cinnamon sticks and mentholated cherries forming its bouquet. This balances silky textures with vividly ripe wild berry fruits, zesty orange and juicy acidity in a way that I find wildly attractive. The 2020 leaves a coating of gently grippy tannins yet keeps the energy high, finishing with medium length as violet inner florals slowly fade."Â VINOUS
