"The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is soft, supple and delicious, with lovely fruit and outstanding overall balance. The flavors are bright and polished throughout. Sweet red cherry, pomegranate, spice and mint add nuance on the pliant, expressive finish. This pretty, forward Brunello should drink well upon release and for another decade or more." -Antonio Galloni

"Caprili's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino shows unique aromas with undertones of forest floor and wet earth with grilled herbs and dark fruit. You also get a heavier tone of dried fig and Graham cracker that distinguishes this particular expression of Sangiovese. The wine is smooth and polished with a nice sense of inner elegance. Silky tannins give Giacomo Bartolommei's Brunello more immediacy and a more approachable drinking window. I very much appreciated the wine's overall elegance." -Monica Larner

"Muscular and tight for now, offering ample cherry and raspberry fruit, tinged by roast beef, spice and earth, with dense tannins and a compact finish. Underbrush accents linger."

"Here's a hearty Brunello that opens with aromas of tilled soil, leather and red berry. The robust palate offers dried red cherry, anise and a hint of cake spice alongside firm, fine-grained tannins. It's straightforward and already accessible but will age well for the next several years. Drink 2016–2022." -Kerin O'Keefe
