Tenuta Caparzo
40 Years Together Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, Italy
A more subtle style of #brunellodimontalcino - At 8 years, some slight bricking at the edges in glass, dark ruby. Given decant time, some indirect wild cherry, leather, underbrush aromas. Piquant brightness in the mouth; shy red fruit, some caramel notes, sturdy tannins. Some initial tired raisiny aromas make me wonder if this would go the distance but at 8 years seems to be drinking fine if you air it out.
