Sangiovese

Attenti al Lupo, or "Beware of the Wolf," is a bold Sangiovese from Podere le Ripi, reflecting Sebastian’s fearless and innovative winemaking. The vineyards, with their limestone-rich soils, are farmed biodynamically, avoiding synthetic treatments. Sebastian believes in letting the vines compete, resulting in lower yields but higher quality grapes. Spontaneous fermentation and aging in French oak barrels add layers of complexity to the wine. Attenti al Lupo showcases the untamed spirit of the Tuscan terroir and Sebastian’s commitment to producing authentic, expressive wines that challenge conventions.

Podere Le Ripi

What began as Francesco Illy’s dream of beauty upon a wild Montalcino ridge has since blossomed into something far richer than wine—a living ecosystem. Today, together with Sebastian Nasello, the estate’s longtime winemaker and guiding spirit, Podere Le Ripi has become a place where agriculture and philosophy intertwine. Nestled between the eastern and western slopes of Montalcino, where Sangiovese vines live among olive trees, woods, and orchards, the farm pulses with biodynamic vitality. Bees, sheep, and wild herbs shape the landscape; fermentations rise on native yeasts; vessels of wood, concrete, and clay cradle the wines with patience.
