Score 91/100 · Drink 2017-2025, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Mar 2017

Caparzo's 2012 Brunello di Montalcino is a mid-weight expression with bright berry aromas and a traditional approach stylistically speaking. This Brunello aged in large oak casks made from Slavonian and French oak. In fact, it shows a streamlined and compact texture with buoyant aromatic intensity. The focus is on raspberry, cherry and plum with distinct shadings of spice, licorice, tar and blue flower at the back. The overall effect is inviting and genuine. The mouthfeel is thin, but the wine offers nice freshness instead.

Tasted blind. Mid to deep ruby with orange tinges. Ripe, dark, mellow fruit. Super-accessible and slightly simple, if long. (WS)
