Very good Brunello for the vintage. Subtle aromas of tobacco, cherry and cedar. Medium-bodied, with a lovely silky texture and a long cherry, berry aftertaste. Delicious. Drink now through 2003. 2,000 cases made.??–JS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add

A single-vineyard Brunello that is pure dynamite this wine accomplishes two things: It shows that 1994 was not nearly as bad a vintage in Tuscany as some would have us believe, and it reinforces Caparzo’s deserved reputation as master winemakers. With bold fruit and grabbing tannins, this is a beauty with highly extracted fruit and a luscious licorice aroma and flavor.——M.S.(11/15/1999)—— 93
