SOLD OUT! I haven't read many reports on the 2019 Tuscan vintage, but after having Caprili's fabulous 2019 Rosso di Montalcino, I'm guessing it's gonna' be a great year. This stuff honestly smells and tastes like Brunello, but it's ready to drink....like TONIGHT!
Of all of the Sangioveses I've tasted in 2021, this offers the best quality-to-price ratio. From the first sniff to the last sip, it's abundantly obvious that Caprili, one of Montalcino's oldest and most respected estates, takes their Rosso just as seriously as their Brunello. At less than $25 and as low as $17.99, I HIGHLY ADVISE you to get in on this action.
2019 Caprili Rosso di Montalcino
Smells and tastes like Brunello, but the tannin is much riper and softer.
ORDER NOW in our online store.
Rosso di Montalcino, in the hands of a top producer like Caprili, produces one of Tuscany's finest values. Produced from the estate's younger Sangiovese vines and only required to be aged for one year before release, this one offers up Brunello-like aromas and flavors, but it is much more accessible upon release.
All I can say is this is one of the best Rosso di Montalcinos I've ever stocked. My staff and I tested it out last week, and we were immediately blown away by the aroma, the palate, and the overall style of Caprili's 2019 Rosso di Montalcino. Boasting a terrific nose of ripe cherry, strawberry, lavender, and rose petal, the palate is open-knit, pliant, and silky. Quite full and potent on the palate, it finishes with ripe and tender tannin.
Truly a feast for the senses and an absurd value from one of the oldest and most respected estates of Montalcino, this will shine at the dinner table with classic holiday menus. I think it also has broad appeal, whether you are a fan of Old or New World wines.
We've got 10 cases available at that crazy-good price. Being that we have a lot of Caprili lovers among our clientele, I would act fast if you want to get any of this one.
