Caparzo Vigna La Casa Brunello di Montalcino 2012
Montosoli, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyCaparzo is located in the north of Montalcino, and are the fortunate caretakers of part of the cru of Montosoli hill. The property is in the hands of Elisabetta Gnudi Angelini, though her daughter Alessandra Angelini returned to the property in 2017 to work alongside her family. This vigna (single vineyard) La Casa is a special site on Montosoli, facing S / SE. It was one of the first single vineyards in Montalcino. After a native ferment and two weeks on skins, this was transferred into oak for two years, followed by a few months in bottle prior to release. A lovely perfumed nose leads to and elegant palate of cherry and wild raspberry, intertwined with a savoury saline element, which lingers on the lengthy finish. Quite a finessed wine, and a real charmer now, but with time still ahead in your cellar.Tasted: 01 December 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $124.95 | 750ml | consignment |
