Note di degustazione
Capanna has created a dark and intense wine in this warm vintage with ripe and jammy fruit overtones. I actually prefer the 2011 Brunello di Montalcino from Capanna over its predecessor in 2010. Perhaps this is because the larger shoulders and riper personality of the vintage make a better backdrop for the opulence of all those dark cherry, dried blackberry and sweet tobacco layers. This expression shows balanced proportions and density.

The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino is dark, pliant and beautifully expressive. Black cherry, plum, lavender and spice notes make a strong first impression. The 2011 presents a noticeably dark palette of aromas and flavors, yet the structure is very much medium in weight and overall body. Soft contours give the 2011 much of its early accessibility. This is a strong wine for the year, and a Brunello with the potential to drink well for the better part of the next decade.
Tasted blind. Deep ruby. Pretty and sweet on the nose while still compact and youthful. Cherry notes. Bags of concentration supported by great acidity and ripe, crunchy tannins. Powerful, with good freshness and grip. Ageworthy. (WS)
