Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Monica Larner - 07 Nov 24
Caparzo's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna La Casa is a firm and powerful wine with medium-plus concentration and dark fruit flavors. The wine reveals blackberry, baked plum, earthy notes and dried tobacco. The tannins feel open-knit and velvety, and the wine is drinking beautifully at the moment.

Concentrated, youthful ruby with orange tinges. Soft spicy nose but unwilling to show it all for the moment. Intense, ripe strawberry fruit palate framed by powdery tannins. Could do with a little bit more freshness, but certainly is impressively concentrated without going over the top. (WS)

Tuscany, a renowned wine region in central Italy, is famous for its high-quality Sangiovese-based wines. Key styles include Chianti, with vibrant acidity and red fruit flavours; Chianti Classico, known for greater depth; and Brunello di Montalcino, prized for its rich, full-bodied character and ageing potential. Tuscany also produces prestigious Super Tuscan wines that blend Sangiovese with international varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon. Top producers are Antinori, for Tignanello; Castello di Ama, for Chianti Classico; and Biondi-Santi, for Brunello.
