The estate is particularly known for its Brunello di Montalcino wines, but also devotes a significant portion of its winemaking to the production of Rosso di Montalcino and IGT Toscana Sangiovese-based wines. The company began producing wines in the late 1980s, and from 1997 onwards has been under the management of Marco Mantengoli. La Rasina encompasses 45 hectares (111 acres) of land, with 11ha (27 acres) occupied by vineyard. The vines span the northeast slopes of Montalcino and are planted at altitudes of 1150ft (350m) above sea level. The flagship of the Raina wine portfolio is the Brunello di Montalcino, which is barrel-aged for 24 months and in bottle for six months. The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is made from a single vineyard plot, Di Vasco, which is named for Vasco Mantengoli who founded the vineyard. The riserva is only produced in excellent vintage years, it spends 26 months in oak, followed by 14 months bottle aging. The remainder of La Rasina's red wine portfolio is almost equally split between its Rosso di Montalcino and IGT Toscana wines made from 100 percent Sangiovese. There are two expressions of Grappa di Brunello, one of which is a riserva, in addition to an extra virgin olive oil from its 4ha (10 acres) of olive groves.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-10T11:00:38-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-26T18:47:20-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","NK2602","Other_Wine","Producer_La Rasina","Region_Tuscany","Source_Bestofwines0223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Sangiovese"],"price":77999,"price_min":77999,"price_max":77999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42805926953098,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2015 | La Rasina | Riserva il Divasco Brunello di Montalcino","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":77999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/54_b0894e6f-e588-4bbb-95f6-ba01bd12fc4b.jpg?v=1677455294"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/54_b0894e6f-e588-4bbb-95f6-ba01bd12fc4b.jpg?v=1677455294","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2015 | La Rasina | Riserva il Divasco Brunello di Montalcino at CaskCartel.com","id":24294175867018,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.398,"height":1519,"width":604,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/54_b0894e6f-e588-4bbb-95f6-ba01bd12fc4b.jpg?v=1677455294"},"aspect_ratio":0.398,"height":1519,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/54_b0894e6f-e588-4bbb-95f6-ba01bd12fc4b.jpg?v=1677455294","width":604}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2015 | La Rasina | Riserva il Divasco Brunello di Montalcino\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlum and cherry character with chocolate and walnuts.
