AdAlberto is Caprili's flagship Riserva, named for Alberto Bartolommei — the great-grandfather of current winemaker Giacomo — and made only in the best vintages from the estate's Madre vineyard, planted in 1965. The site sits at around 365 meters in Tavernelle, the cooler southwestern sector of Montalcino, on mixed limestone and silica soils that lend Sangiovese both power and lift. 2016 is one of the modern era's great Brunello vintages, and this Riserva shows it: deep, layered, and structured, with dark cherry, leather, dried rose, and tobacco resolving into a long, savory finish. A bottle for the cellar, and for special occasions.
