Bright ruby red colour. The bouquet opens with cedar wood, then plum and small red berries. Medium-bodied, fresh and pleasantly lively, precise, very pure fruit and a pleasing finish. A marvellous wine to drink with ambition! SUPERIORE.DE

Brunello di Montalcino “La Casa” DOCG 2018
Bright, intense ruby-garnet colour. Multi-layered aromas of sweet red fruits meld into rose petals, liquorice, spices and mint.

Brunello di Montalcino “La Casa” DOCG 2019
Caparzo's La Casa vineyard, located in an enviable position on the hill of Montosoli, has been vinified separately since 1977 and is one of the first single-vineyard bottlings in Montalcino. Like regular Brunello, La Casa has a surprising underlying acidity that gives the wine brightness and focus, the northern exposure of the parcel certainly playing a role. Fresh herbs and pomegranate contrast with nuances of sun-baked earth and incense. On the palate, the wine is very full-bodied and concentrated, with tactile tannins, yet remains fresh and flowing at all times. SUPERIORE.DE

Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2019
Caparzos Riserva 2019 is a big, powerful wine that needs at least a few years to mature. Dark and brooding, this Riserva shows the more masculine side of Sangiovese. Black cherry, plum, leather, spices and tobacco lie on a firm beam of acidity and tannin. This red has the explosive energy and finesse of the dream vintage 2019 and it will take some time to mature until all the facets of this highly personal wine come together - but as always with top wines: patience is rewarded!

When Elisabetta Gnudi Angelini bought the winery in 1998, Caparzo, under the management of Nuccio Turone, was already one of the most modern wineries in Tuscany. Twelve friends from Milan had acquired the cypress-lined property in the mid-1960s in the north of the municipality of Montalcino as a kind of common country house to produce Brunello, but later abandoned it due to differences of opinion. The great commitment shown by the circumspect Roman Gnudi Angelini in the expensive restructuring and further strengthening of the enchanting winery has led to remarkable successes. The new underground rooms for winemaking and a meanwhile completed renewal of the wood stock with the purchase of barrels in intermediate sizes let the winery shine again in the bright brilliance of earlier times. The company can therefore rightly count itself among the most renowned Brunello manufacturers in the denomination. The first Brunello had already been produced in this production facility in 1970.
The winemaker and former film producer, supported by a very competent team of employees, owns a total of four wineries. Caparzo loves Elisabetta the most, however, because it is there - as she says - that her personal handwriting is best recognizable. The dynamic plant manager is unwaveringly convinced of the great potential of this operation. Since 1997 Massimo Bracalente has been responsible for the preparation of the fine wines of the house. The ingenious oenologist is not only well versed in his profession, but was also born and raised in Montalcino. His reputation as „Master of Sangiovese“ goes far beyond the borders of the famous wine village. It is therefore no surprise that drops of the house of Caparzo are repeatedly handed out at state banquets.
The 90 hectares of Tenuta Caparzo vineyards are spread over various locations. Thanks to some fortunate circumstances, Elisabetta was able to acquire 28 hectares in the best Brunello sites and 18 hectares in the best Rosso sites. Among them were also the legendary Cru location La Casa and the location La Caduta. The latter vineyard is responsible for a Rosso with an excellent price-performance ratio. The estate's vineyards are partly located in the top areas of Montosoli in the north and Castelgiocondo in the west of Montalcino. Older plantations - also in the south - were overhauled. In addition to the outstanding Sangiovese, varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Colorino and Chardonnay thrive on the sunny slopes of Caparzo. SUPERIORE.DE
"The style of the house is ... already well known thanks to the best versions of La Casa, a Brunello site wine, which interprets the character of the northern quadrant with a discreet modern touch and progressively and virtuosically re-models it." GAMBERO ROSSO 2014
