Mineral, light citrus and florals aroma. Bright acidity, tangy tongue feel. The wine shined the next day. — 3 years ago

My first experience with a Friulian Pignolo...Wow..what a simply perfect pasta/pizza wine. Nice bright berry red color... medium weight on the palate...smoke, BlackBerry fruit, sweet red fruit and brilliant lively acidity...perfect foil to red tomato sauce and sausage pizza. Only problem being that the balance, refreshment quotient, and cravability mean a single 750 is not enough. Lost the battle w/wife for last swallow! What a great bargain for Saturday night red sauce! — 6 years ago

very surprised about this 2016 Primitivo, not a big fan of Primitivo in general, but this one is quite have on fruit flavors and is quite substantial, a little heavy on alc., but nice at the end of the meal — 8 years ago

Still way too young. But this super juicy and potent Amarone is too unique and too good to leave unopened for long. — 10 years ago

I had this on night two (one week ago) but it was still drinking very well. Monti di Ragni never fails to be memorable. — 11 years ago

The 2023 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Ruviano is savory in style, offering crushed rocks, wild herbs and ripe yellow apples. Silky-smooth yet full of zesty tension, this cascades across the palate with tart orchard fruits and sour citrus tones. The 2023 finishes long and saline. $15.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, July 2024) — 2 years ago

A sparkling Iranian white that is rather on the dry fruity (stone fruits dominate) with a decent acidity... could hold its own against some of the sour beers fashionable these days — 7 years ago

Zeno Zignoli is all one whole thing with Monte dei Ragni. 2.5 hectares of vineyard at Marega (Fumane) a wine-area for Valpolicella, Ripasso, Recioto and Amarone that Zeno produces to high levels of quality and natural withering to the right and tradional way. Soft crushing and pressing, a skilful use of the woods and the almost complete exclusion of mechanical pumping systems.
Very low yields in the vineyard with typical pergola accommodation bounded by stone walls, the characteristic so-called: "marogne". Manual work, no "chemical contribution" at all, from fertilizer to pesticides. Only healthy and dedicated wine grapes, not more than 6000 bottles produced. The difficult year 2014 as such, Monte dei Ragni will not come out with Amarone. This Inamphora white (orange) IGT is produced from 96% Garganega grapes and Malvasia Istriana 4% macerated on the skins, not filtered, fermentation and aging is made in amphorae for at least 6 months.
Respect for the land to the balanced use of natural resources and agriculture, the quality of healthy, wholesome life all this and more is the subject embodied by Zeno Zignoli's vision and the genuine wines he makes at his Monte dei Ragni winery.
