The answer was obvious – the increasingly delicious Rosso di Montalcinos and from one of the best value producers in the entire region – Caparzo. Rosso di Montalcinos, which used to be a way to get rid of unwanted grapes from their Brunello, are increasingly part of marketing and cashflow equation.
Modern Rossos allow cash to come in much quicker since the aging requirements are substantially shorter. Even more importantly, they are now an early beacon of anticipated quality that consumers can expect from the big boy Brunello Riservas the wineries will release three years later.
These Rossos are now viewed as market makers and wineries are putting a lot of effort into making them great and memorable. When Vinous was covering the 2019 vintage, they summed up the revolution nicely.
“The Rosso di Montalcino category has never been better than it is today. Top-notch Rosso di Montalcino delivers a highly enjoyable expression of Sangiovese with Montalcino pedigree that communicates house style and terroir associated with it. Rosso di Montalcino, with its zesty fruit and high acidity, will pair with nearly any meal imaginable.”
Caparzo’s 2019 Rosso di Montalcino displays ripe fresh strawberries and cherries on the nose. A bit of pepper and spice reveal themselves on the palate, sitting atop layers of cherries. It’s bright and zesty and Vinous isn’t kidding when they say it will pair nicely with pretty much anything.

With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.
This is a sensational single-vineyard Merlot made from incredibly tiny clusters, full of some of the most elegant, intensely structured fruit from high atop Sonoma Mountain. Beautiful weight and balance with aromas of blueberries, black currants, sage and a hint of cocoa. It’s got a full, plush mouthfeel, pristine and vibrant fruit and a wonderful smooth finish. Thanks to Chad’s big bet on himself, he was able to make a knockout Sonoma Mountain beauty, without the need for any middleman, helping us to enjoy one of his best creations at an outstanding price.
90 Points, James Suckling
Damien has crafted a delicious Médoc, full of character with dense black currant and cherry fruit, cedar, tobacco and wonderful complexity. It’s silky complexion is what pushes it over the edge (and, of course, the price!) It doesn’t hurt that it comes from a 95-point Left Bank vintage that the Wine Advocate declared, “outstanding.”
It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
