Capanna Brunello di Montalcino 2003
Capanna Brunello di Montalcino is a very traditional Brunello, soft, suave and elegant. Due to its characterists, and its capacity to develop and improve for many years when bottled, this wine is now valued as one of the most exclusive Brunellos. “Pretty and caressing, with aromas of chocolate, coffee, berry and cherry” (Wine Spectator, 7/01). This wine is an excellent accompaniment to game, grilled red meat and matured cheeses. Its full-bodied taste also allows it to be enjoyed on its own. Wine Advocate Capanna's 2003 Brunello di Montalcino is a rich, concentrated effort loaded with plenty of dark red fruit, smoke, tar, licorice and underbrush. It shows superb depth and purity in a style that reconciles the ripeness of the vintage while maintaining notable elegance and complexity. A further year or two of bottle age should help round out the tannins, although the wine is drinking beautifully today. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2018. Score: 92. —Antonio Galloni, April 2008. |
