The Caparzo La Casa Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2020 14.5% Vol. 0.75 l is an outstanding Tuscan red wine that embodies the essence of a great Brunello di Montalcino - elegant, powerful and remarkably structured. It comes from the renowned Caparzo winery, which is one of the pioneers of the region and presents "La Casa", one of its most prestigious vineyards. This single vineyard is located in the north-west of Montalcino and is one of the historic crus of the appellation, which is particularly known for its microclimatic balance between sun, wind and soil conditions.


The wine is made from 100% Sangiovese Grosso, a grape variety that can develop its full complexity on the estate's calcareous clay soils. After fermentation, the Brunello matures for 12 months in French barriques and then for a further 24 months in large French oak barrels with a capacity of 30 hectolitres. This long ageing in wood gives it its harmonious structure, depth and noble maturity. The result is a wine that perfectly combines tradition and modernity - a classic Brunello with timeless elegance and impressive longevity.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the Caparzo La Casa Brunello di Montalcino 2020 presents itself in an intense garnet red colour with subtle orange tones. The nose reveals a powerful, complex bouquet with aromas of ripe forest fruits, spices, vanilla and a hint of tobacco. The palate is racy, structured and elegant at the same time, with well-integrated tannins, balanced acidity and a long, finely spiced finish. Notes of plum, sour cherry, cedar wood and subtle roasted flavours lend it depth and nobility.

The Caparzo La Casa Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is an ideal accompaniment to matured beef, lamb, game dishes and grilled steaks. It also harmonises wonderfully with truffle dishes, mushroom risotto, pasta with ragù or mature hard cheeses such as Pecorino or Parmigiano Reggiano. It unfolds its full complexity at a serving temperature of 18 °C.
