This wine displays a very dark color, an austere nose with a mineral scent of graphite, cocoa and tobacco; spicy palate with an impressive concentration of dark berry flavor. It has ripe grape tannins that are tight but not astringent. Vignalta Cabernet Riserva 2000 is a wine that will benefit from prolonged aging and will surprise you in comparative Cabernet tastings in the years to come.
The 2005 Sagrantino di Montefalco 25 Anni is round and supple at the outset, with warm notes of red fruits, spices, earthiness, game and French oak. The firm Sagrantino tannins appear on the mid-palate, framing the long and intense finish, where sweet herbs, licorice and tar make a second appearance. The 25 Anni is a wine that nicely straddles modern and more classic styles in Sagrantino, with a lean towards the modern end of the spectrum. That said, today Caprai’s wines are closer to the middle stylistically relative to most wines being made in the region. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2021. 92 Points RMP
Dark in color, with leathery, spicy black fruit character. Full-bodied, with lots of fruit and charred oak flavors, well-integrated tannins and a long, inky finish of mineral. Rich, round and juicy. 1,500 cases made. 90 Points (WS).
35% Nebbiolo, 35% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. Pure nose with aromas of small fruits. A fruity, elegant taste; good balance in the mouth and a fresh fruity finish with very fine, silky tannins. Ideal to drink young but matures well for at least 5-7 years. Sito Moresco combines complexity and longevity with refinement and accessibility.
