Rasne Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019 – Classic Brunello with finesse and depth

Rasne Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019 is the epitome of great Tuscan red wine: elegant, structured and made for those who seek true Brunello quality with both personality and ageing potential. This is a serious and characterful wine made from 100% Sangiovese from Montalcino’s prestigious vineyards – an area known worldwide for wines with length, complexity and impressive balance.

The 2019 vintage is considered among the most harmonious in Montalcino in recent times, and Rasne has taken full advantage of the conditions. The wine has spent a full five years in the making, two of which were spent in large Slavonian oak barrels, followed by three years of bottle aging. This patient approach results in a Brunello with silky tannins, great freshness and a classic expression that satisfies both the experienced wine lover and the ambitious Brunello discoverer.

Rasne Brunello 2019 is a wine that works just as well at the dinner table as in the cellar. It’s beautiful and approachable now after decanting, but will develop even greater depth and complexity over the next 10-15 years. A great choice for those who want an authentic Brunello di Montalcino at a very attractive price.

The history of the house

Rasne is a small, family-owned winery in the heart of Montalcino, created with a clear ambition: to make Brunello that respects the traditions of the area while speaking to the modern wine lover. The name Rasne is inspired by the Etruscans – the first winemakers in Tuscany – and symbolizes the connection between the craftsmanship of the past and the precision of today.

The house works exclusively with Sangiovese from carefully selected plots and deliberately keeps production small to ensure maximum quality. The large Slavonian oak barrels are chosen to preserve the purity of the grape and the expression of the terroir, while the long bottle aging gives the wines peace, balance and harmony before release.
