Caparzo Brunello di Montalcino 2021
Caparzo was listed by Wine Spectator as one of Brunello di Montalcino's 'Cream of the Crop' producers. The estate is comprised of 475 acres, with 125 total acres planted to vineyards on all 5 sides of the hill of Montalcino, the only estate with this benefit. This gives owner Elizabetta Gnudi Angelini, with her winemaker Massimo Bracalente, access to all of the different terroirs of the appellation, from soil differences to unique microclimates to varying altitudes of vineyards. Serve with roasted meats, hearty pasta dishes, braised meats, rustic lamb courses and/or Italian cheeses and olives.

Theres plenty of red fruit flavors of cherry, strawberry and raspberry, with hints of wood smoke, tobacco and iron. Firmly built, with vibrant acidity and a line of dusty tannins. This is elegant overall and super long. Best from 2029 through 2048. 15,000 cases made, 7,500 cases imported.
