96 JS / 95 WA / 94 FS / 16 JR

Intense aromas of iron, rust, earth and dark, dried fruits. Its full-bodied, with incredible depth of fruit, berries and lemon peel. Drink or hold. A beautiful Brunello. So much going on here. Gorgeous.-James Suckling

Caparzo's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna la Casa opens to dark intensity with blackish-garnet undertones. The wine exhibits muscle and power with a large array of aromatic qualities that include dried cherry, spice, leather, tobacco, licorice and tar. It aspires to high complexity and intensity and it delivers on that promise. In the mouth, it shows beautifully tame tannins and a silky texture. Brunello Vigna la Casa lasts many long minutes on the palate. The wine should hold steadily over the next 15 years.-Monica Larner, Wine Advocate

Bright, intense ruby ​​garnet. Intense, finely drawn nose with rich notes of dark cherries, some cranberries and raspberries, shows beautiful play. Very polished on the palate, shows a lot of fruit there too, opens with fine-meshed, dense tannins, very elegant, long and straightforward, juicy finish.-Falstaff
