"Solido e concentrato nella matrice principale mostra note di amarene, prugne nere, more, cioccolato fondente e fiori rossi pressati. In sottofondo la liquirizia domina la scena secondaria. Corpo pieno, tannini mordenti di natura polimerizzata ed un finale esploso ricco di progressione ed infinita lunghezza. Meglio dal 2022."

"Potente al naso dipensa in modo violento ma sapiente la ricchezza sensoriale con note di more, asfalto bollente e ribes. Leggera la presenza della vaniglia dolce in sottofondo che arricchisce la scena secondaria. Corpo pieno, tannini perfettamente maturi e ben levigati ed un finale solido e compatto. Meglio dal 2022."

"Aromas of prune, raisin and baking spice lead the nose. The youthfully austere, primary palate shows raisin and ground pepper alongside bracing tannins that clench the finish. Give the tannins another couple of years then drink to capture the remaining fruit."

"Funkelndes, sattes Rubinviolett; feine, fruchtbetonte Nase, intensiv nach Brombeere, dahinter etwas Tabak; zeigt am Gaumen viel dichtes und sattes Tannin, zupackend, im Kern weich, baut sich Schicht um Schicht auf, wirkt derzeit noch sehr jung, einige Jahre Lagerung können bestimmt nicht schaden."

90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arnaldo-Caprai Collepiano" from the vintage 2001 on 01.01.2005 with 90 of 100 points.
"There's no mistaking that Caprai touch. Resin, dark chocolate, coffee bean and new oak in layer after layer from the man who put Montefalco on the enological map. Big on tannins but carefully structured, balanced and lacking the alcoholic burn of some of its contemporaries. Imported by Villa Italia."
