The wine

Capanna Brunello 2019: The Soul of Montalcino

I invite you on a sensory journey to the heart of Tuscany, where time seems to suspend its flight. This Brunello di Montalcino from the Capanna estate is more than a wine; it is a story of terroir, patience and passion, a true gem that I can't wait to introduce to you.

Sangiovese Grosso, the jewel of Montalcino

Nestled in the prestigious Brunello di Montalcino DOCG appellation, the Capanna estate carefully cultivates the region's emblematic grape variety: Sangiovese Grosso. Its vines thrive on galestro and clay soils, giving the fruit remarkable complexity and structure. Vinification follows traditional methods, with fermentation in steel tanks, thus preserving the pure expression of the grape.

The 2019 vintage displays an intense ruby color, dotted with garnet highlights that already betray its maturity. On the nose, you will be enveloped by an ample and deep bouquet: aromas of ripe red cherry delicately mingle with spicy notes of tobacco and leather, all enhanced by floral and balsamic touches. On the palate, this wine reveals itself as full and balanced. Its tannins are velvety, caressing the palate, and its finish is long and harmonious, leaving a memorable imprint.

An exceptional table companion

This Brunello di Montalcino from Capanna is a wine that calls for conviviality and the pleasures of the table. It will pair wonderfully with grilled or sauced red meats, game with intense flavors, or aged cheeses that will highlight its aromatic richness. It is the ideal wine for festive moments, but also for attentive tastings, where each sip is an invitation to discovery.

⚠️ Alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health — consume in moderation. Sale prohibited to minors.

The Capanna 2019 draws its character from galestro and clay soils, and its fermentation in steel tanks relies on the pure expression of Sangiovese Grosso — a detail that sets it apart from Brunellos more marked by barrel aging.
