Vinous (84)Darker in color, with more evidence of ruby than the regular Brunello bottling, but still only moderately saturated. Shows some sweetness from the oak on the nose but also a pronounced cassis note that is distinctly not varietal. Round and reasonably soft in the mouth, with moderate concentration. This offers a more harmonious acidity than the above, as well as a degree of elegance, but not the weight or force of a Brunello from a superior vineyard. In a vintage like 1995, I expected more from a house that has been making very good wine in Montalcino since the 1970s. |

Vinous (90)Deep, saturated garnet. Imposing aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg and spicy cedar yield to flavors of dark chocolate, roasted coffee and vanilla. Concentrated, polished and lush, but could benefit from a bit more focus. Finishes with fairly firm but somewhat drying tannins. |

Wine Advocate (93)Caparzo is one of two properties in Montalcino owned by the beautiful and charming Elisabetta Gnudi Angelini. The other property is Altesino. This wine, the Caparzo 2015 Brunello di Montalcino is a very classic interpretation that delivers the goods without any distracting bells or whistles. The wine opens to red and purple fruit aromas with background tones of dried herb, potting soil, cedar wood and light spice. Fruit comes from a site with heavier clay soils, and you get hints of that extra density and richness here. This vintage offers all you need in a model Brunello from a very beautiful and generous vintage. I always admire the wines of Caparzo for their accessible and immediate drinking style. Some 160,000 bottles were corked in August 2019, and the wine hit the market in January 2020. |

Vinous (94)The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino La Casa takes a little time to collect itself in the glass, pulling you closer as white smoke gives way to crushed stone, then peppery florals, wild strawberry and cedar. The textures are like pure silk, with an elegant display of savory black cherry and spice complicated by salty minerals. This shows amazing density while never feeling heavy, nearly masking its fine-grained tannins until the very end, where hints of orange citrus and dried berries linger. The 2016 La Casa is a beauty with plenty of upside potential. |

Wine Spectator (94)A big, modern Brunello, with berry, cherry and vanilla character. Full-bodied, with round and polished tannins and a long, raisin and dried cherry aftertaste. A departure from the finesse of La Casa. Still needs time to come together. Best after 2003. 1,900 cases made. |

Vinous (94.5)Good full ruby. Brooding aromas of cassis, menthol, chocolate and minerals. Dense and juicy but slightly hard at present, with a floral nuance and nicely integrated acidity lending precision to the red fruit and violet flavors. The slightly tough tannins and the dumbed down fruit leave an impression of medicinal austerity on the long mouthcoating finish. Needs time. |

An extraordinary accomplishment from the Tuscan vineyards of Caparzo, the Brunello di Montalcino La Casa 2016 is an expertly-made wine that exudes passion, quality, and traditional craftsmanship. Sourced from the sun-drenched hills of Montalcino, this exquisite vintage draws deeply from the rich terroir layered with mineral-rich clay and Galestro soils. Hand-harvested Sangiovese grapes mature on long-established vines, developing a complex flourish of flavours under the mindful gaze of esteemed winemaker Elisabetta Gnudi Angelini. The wine ferments in stainless steel vats to preserve its intense berry character, followed by a maturation process in French oak barrels - a refined touch that imparts a velvety texture and delicate spicy notes. The result is the Caparzo Brunello di Montalcino La Casa 2016, an expressive wine brimming with red fruits, balanced by earthy undertones and a sturdy yet fine-grained tannin backbone. The elegant finish serves as the final note in this harmonious symphony of flavours, promising an unrivaled enological experience. |

Emanating from the illustrious region of Tuscany, the Caparzo Brunello di Montalcino La Casa 2019 is a marvel amongst its contemporaries. This captivating red wine is crafted lovingly at the hands of Caparzo, a historic estate renowned for its commitment to traditional winemaking practices. The unique microclimate and stony slopes of Montalcino give birth to Sangiovese vines capable of producing this rich, intense and complex Brunello. The bold character of Caparzo Brunello di Montalcino La Casa 2019 exudes ripe red fruit notes, ensnared in a delicate weave of tobacco and spice, reinforced by a well-balanced, persistent structure. Aged for two years in a combination of Slavonian oak barrels and French oak barriques, its tannic backbone promises great potential for ageing. This wine doesn’t just represent a mere sip, it encompasses a voyage into the vivid heartlands of Italian viticulture. |

Vinous (93)Cedar shavings, mentholated herbs, graphite, dried roses and cherries form a delicately pretty bouquet as the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva blossoms in the glass. Within, I’m finding masses of wild berries contrasted by a bump of sour citrus, and silky textures that soothe as hints of tobacco amass toward the close. This leaves the palate classically dry yet keeps the mouth watering, as residual acids and minerals mingle through the long, licorice-tinged finale. |

Vinous (93)The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is dark and balsamic in nature, with depths of red and black fruit offset by hints of clove. It’s surprisingly soft-textured and almost juicy on the palate, showing mineral-inflected cherries and savory spice. While structured, its tannins are more rounded than many 2017s, along with a bump of residual acidity that creates an almost-classic feel. That said, this gentle giant is geared more toward medium-term cellaring. |

Wine Enthusiast (96)Classic Sangiovese aromas of wild berry, forest floor, rose and new leather waft out of the glass along with whiffs of camphor. Delicious and smooth, the elegantly structured palate features ripe wild cherry, blood orange and licorice alongside polished tannins. It's well balanced, with fresh acidity—what a fantastic showing. It's already accessible but will age well for years to come. |

It dances across the palate, offering juicy red cherry, orange zest, star anise and saline before a white almond close. Lithe tannins and fresh acidity keep it elegant and bright. Delicious and already approachable, it will age well for another decade or more. |

Wine Advocate (96)The outstanding 2010 Brunello di Montalcino gives you everything you want to see in a great wine, a great Tuscan wine.

Vinous (94)Luminous deep red. Captivating aromas of sweet red berries, cinnamon, violet and licorice. Then also very fruity in the mouth; refined, juicy red plum and raspberry flavors linger brightly on the fresh back end. Has a delightful red fruit cocktail quality that makes it practically impossible to put the glass back down. And though it is simply bursting at the seams with early appeal, this truly lovely Brunello will also age well. Unless my memory fails me, this may well be the best entry-level wine from Casanova di Neri that I have ever tasted. |
