Note di degustazione
The Capanna 2017 Brunello di Montalcino shows fresh primary fruit initially, but the bouquet is otherwise footed in ethereal tones of balsam herb, cola, crushed flowers and autumnal leaf. The wine delivers purity and a nice level of complexity that flirts with both varietal and territory-specific characteristics. It registers 15% alcohol, but thankfully it's not too intrusive. That power and the wine's structure, with some mild tannic bitterness, plays against the delicate quality of fruit you get here. Production is 35,000 bottles.

Developing mid ruby. Perfumed, peppery and concentrated cherry fruit nose. Sappy, intense cherry fruit with quite a bit of stubborn tannins that need more time. (WS)
The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is smoky with peppery wild berries, crushed roses and hints of flowery underbrush. This coasts across the palate, with silky textures infused by saline-minerals and perfumed red fruits. There’s an almost-sultry character here, seductive, yet also rough around the edges, with nervous acids that nicely balance the silty tannins that it leaves behind. This is far from a classic style of Brunello, yet impossible to ignore, captivating to the senses and sure to provide a massive amount of pleasure over the medium term.
