The wine

Capanna Brunello 2019: The Soul of Montalcino

I invite you on a sensory journey to the heart of Tuscany, where Sangiovese Grosso reveals all its nobility. This Brunello di Montalcino from the Capanna estate is not just a wine, it is a story, a landscape captured in a bottle.

The terroir of Montalcino, the art of Capanna

We are in Montalcino, on those gentle hills where the climate is a gift from heaven for Sangiovese Grosso. The Capanna estate, rooted in this blessed land, meticulously selects its grapes to create this Brunello. It is a wine that speaks of its origin, a faithful reflection of the DOCG appellation, a guarantee of tradition and excellence.

This 2019 vintage is the fruit of careful vinification. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, with a long maceration that allows all the richness of the fruit to be extracted. Then, the wine begins a long aging, well beyond the minimum requirements of the DOCG, with at least two years spent in wooden barrels. This process gives Capanna's Brunello a complex yet always balanced structure.

In your glass, you will discover an intense ruby red color, a promise of beautiful depth. On the nose, envelopping aromas of ripe red fruits offer themselves to you, enhanced by delicate notes of spices, leather and even a touch of tobacco. On the palate, the softness of the tannins dialogues with a vibrant acidity, creating a harmony that lingers. It is a wine with the potential to evolve magnificently over time, revealing new facets with each tasting.

Un compagnon de table inoubliable

When the time for tasting approaches, I suggest you pair this Brunello with dishes that will showcase it. It is the ideal partner for red meats, whether grilled or simmered, and it sublimely enhances game. Do not hesitate to serve it with aged cheeses, whose richness will pair perfectly with its complexity.

This Brunello di Montalcino from Capanna is more than just a wine; it is a wine for meditation, an invitation to take your time, to savor the moment. It embodies the very essence of the Montalcino terroir and promises you a deep and satisfying sensory experience, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just discovering the magic of great Tuscan wines. It is the kind of bottle you open for special occasions, those you want to share and will remember for a long time.
