Wine Enthusiast: 97 Points

(4/1/2022) "Enticing, earthy aromas of forest floor, blue flowers, leather and wild berries come to the forefront on this classically crafted Brunello. Full-bodied and elegantly structured, the savory palate delivers juicy Morello cherry, crushed raspberry, licorice and a hint of mocha framed in taut, refined tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it seamlessly balanced. Drink 2024-2036."

Wine Spectator: 97 Points

(6/30/2022) "Highly Recommended. A taut, linear red, hallmarked by cherry, strawberry, green olive, rose, sanguine and iron aromas and flavors. This is packed with fruit, backed by a solid matrix of tannins and an aftertaste of wild herbs, fruit and tobacco. Best from 2026 through 2045. 400 cases made, 200 cases imported."

Wine Advocate: 96 Points

(2/17/2022) "The Caprili 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva AdAlberto (with only 5,000 bottles produced) is a standout wine, showing intensity, smooth integration and lots of varietal personality. "Classic" is probably the best word to apply here, and I use that descriptor with care. The tannins are expertly integrated, and even at this young age, the wine shows no rough edges. It is polished and integrated to the end. Fruit comes from a single hectare of vines with rocky clay soils that lock in important moisture during the summer months. Drink Date: 2024 - 2045."
