DESCRIPTION

Subregion: Montalcino

Capanna Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a traditional expression of Montalcino’s most revered grape: 100% Sangiovese from the Montosoli area. This Riserva has been crafted with patience — extended aging in Slavonian oak followed by long bottle maturation — producing a wine that marries vibrant red fruit with savory, tertiary complexity. Expect aromas and flavors of cherry, orange zest, dried red fruit, cedar and hazelnut, with subtler herbal notes such as spearmint. On the palate it shows firm, structured tannins and bright, balancing acidity that speak to both immediate drinkability with food and long-term aging. The wine’s texture is dense and layered rather than overtly opulent; this is classic Brunello restraint, where energy and clarity are as important as power. Pair with roast red meats, game and very aged cheeses to match the wine’s structure and savory profile. Noted for strong scores from critics, this Riserva is a top-tier bottle for collectors who prize European, single-varietal expressions that reward patience in the cellar. For those seeking a measured, terroir-driven Brunello Riserva, Capanna’s offering from Montosoli is a refined, ageworthy choice.

Expert Notes

Robert Parker: 94

The Capanna 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva reveals a medium-dark ruby color and shiny intensity. This Riserva is balanced and quite beautiful, showing that sharp clarity and freshness that only Sangiovese can deliver in cool and balanced vintages such as this.

James Suckling: 95

This has a gorgeous nose of orange zest, hazelnuts, cherry blossom, cherry stones, peaches, cedar and some spearmint. Firm, dense and structured, with a wealth of fruit and fragrance. Lengthy. Still tight and chewy. Best from 2025.
