Tasting notes
Tenuta Caparzo's Brunello di Montalcino La Casa is a renowned creation from Tuscany, Italy, using the robust and elegant Sangiovese grape. The 1985 vintage stands out, blending the strength and grace of Sangiovese beautifully. Grown on the hills of Montalcino, these grapes benefit from abundant sunlight and just the right temperature variations, drawing out a profound depth of flavor.
In volume 30, this wine appears as Shizuku's trophy for victory. Compared to Raphael's masterpiece "The Triumph of Galatea," its sweet finish is like being blessed by the goddess of victory. For him, this wine held a special meaning.
Pouring into the glass, it shows a brick color with a hint of orange at the edges, a true sign of aging. The aroma is complex and deep, with notes of tea, sous-bois, and dried herbs. On the palate, a powerful attack is followed by rich and mellow fruit flavors. The acidity is lively, balancing the wine beautifully. The tannins are velvety, and the finish is long, leaving a pleasant satisfaction.
Decanting this wine will further unveil its potential. It's recommended to savor it slowly in a large glass, allowing the full experience to unfold.
