The single-vineyard 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna la Casa is immediately distinguished by aromas of smoke, flint and dark fruit. This wine offers more depth and complexity compared to Caparzo's base Brunello from this same excellent vintage. Unlike the base Brunello, however, this wine will definitely require more time to open and flesh out as it continues its bottle evolution. The fruit is a little less accessible at this young stage in the wine's lifespan. It shows lots of energy and tightness at its core that should soften and blossom over the next 5 years. It should be worth the wait.-ML JS 94 jamessuckling.com, November 2017 Very aromatic with cedar, dried flower, cherry and smoke. Medium to full body, firm and chewy tannins and a polished and tight finish. Needs another three or four years to open.

Alluring scents of chopped mint, dried rose, graphite, forest floor and wild berry waft out of the glass. It's ethereally elegant, offering red cherry, pomegranate, star anise and white pepper alongside bright acidity and firm, refined tannins. Drink 2023–2033. Vn 91 Vinous, April 2018 Bright medium red-ruby. Strawberry, red currant, violet, sandalwood and black licorice on the nose. Densely packed but juicy, with a sexy appeal to the fresh but concentrated red berry and minty milk chocolate flavors. Bright medium red-ruby. Strawberry, red currant, violet, sandalwood and black licorice on the nose. Densely packed but juicy, with a sexy appeal to the fresh but concentrated red berry and minty milk chocolate flavors. Not at all a thick style in line with the Montosoli grand cru area (which gives some of Montalcino's most refined Brunellos). Finishes with smooth, building tannins and subtle length, but I think it will develop a little more complexity and weight in the years to come.- Id'a |
