Capanna takes its name from the estate's position on the Montosoli hill, widely considered one of the most prestigious crus in all of Montalcino, and the family has been farming there since the 1950s. The 2021 shows a dusty, floral character with an inviting bouquet of dried rose, cedar shavings, and crushed black cherry, moving into a deeply textural, silken, and round palate with ripe wild berry fruit offset by crunchy mineral tones and brisk acidity. The finish carries real youthful tension, mixing sour citrus notes with edgy tannins and a chewy resonance of primary concentration. From a vintage widely considered one of Brunello's most exciting in recent memory, with real aging potential over the next 10 to 15+ years.

94 Points
"Balancing ripeness, softness and volume with restraint and Sangiovese elegance, the Capanna 2021 Brunello di Montalcino shows a pretty, expressive aromatic profile that is already open and inviting at a young stage. This vintage stands out for its etched focus, delivering bright cherry, blue flower and crushed stone over a finely detailed finish, making it one of the estate’s strongest recent releases and nearly ready to drink on release. Fermentation and aging take place in large Slavonian oak casks, with fruit sourced from 12 hectares of southwest and southeast-facing vineyards on galestro clay schist with marine deposits. Production totals 34,100 bottles."
