Brunello di Montalcino 2019, Capanna
A monumental Brunello. On the nose, it alternates between ripe dark fruits and hints of leather, oriental spices, and a balsamic note. On the palate, it is dense, vibrant, and infinitely persistent, with noble tannins that promise a legendary evolution. A wine that perfectly embodies the strength and elegance of the 'Magic Hill' in a perfect vintage.
Brunello di Montalcino 2019, Capanna
The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino from Capanna is a celebration of balanced power. While the 2018 shone for its gentleness, the 2019 from Montosoli (north-facing slope) has produced a wine of rare density and energy. On the nose, it is a symphony of dark fruits: blackberry, plum, and black cherry blend with earthy notes, brown tobacco, dark chocolate, and a very persistent balsamic hint of eucalyptus. On the palate, it is sumptuous; the entry is broad and enveloping, supported by a majestic tannic structure typical of Capanna's style, which in 2019 reaches a silky maturity. The freshness, typical of the northern slope, acts as a backbone, preventing the wine from becoming heavy and guiding the sip toward an extremely long, spicy, and profoundly mineral finish.
