Robert Parker (95)

Starting with this vintage, the Canalicchio di Sopra 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna La Casaccia carries a "Vigna" designation. La Casaccia is a two-hectare parcel with clay soils rich in minerals that was planted in 1990. Francesco Ripaccioli embarked on an estate-wide mapping project about 10 years ago to determine which parcels would be worthy of single-vineyard distinction. This wine always has an elegant brightness about it with aromas of iris root, blood orange and tart forest berry. This vintage delivers moderately more heft and intensity to the bouquet, although it remains understated in terms of palate. Give it more time to flesh out. Only 4,133 bottles were made.

Very intense and deep wine. The nose is savory, with earthy strawberries, cinnamon, sweet violets and even yellow stone-fruit. Full-bodied, graceful palate with velvety tannins, refreshing acidity and a polished finish. Long aftertaste. Grace and power go hand in hand here. Drinkable now, but best after 2025.

Mid ruby. Notes of dark earth and spice and, with aeration, focused fruit. But still not entirely open. Pure cherry fruit supported by grainy tannins. Firm structure and lots of lively sour-cherry fruit on the finish. Great balance, while the tannins need time to settle. (WS)

Vinous (96)

Dark and brooding, the 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna La Casaccia slowly blossoms in the glass with a dramatic mix of steeped plums, cinnamon sticks, grilled herbs and sweet lavender. This is a model of purity, lifted and refined with soft textures and cool-toned acidity lending freshness as ripe red and hints of blue fruit settle upon the senses. The 2020 firms up through the finish, taking on a pleasantly bitter tinge that puckers the cheeks as grippy tannins and crunchy mineral tones frame the experience without getting in the way of its energetic persona.

Jeb Dunnuck (96)

The bright red/ruby-hued 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino La Casaccia is fresh and offers a deeper though equally pure aromatic profile, with notes of darker cherries, candied flowers, sweet sage, and mossy earth. Medium-bodied, it's richer on the palate as well, with ripe tannins and more depth, but it's long and inviting, with a hearty feel in its hints of leather and porcini mushroom on the finish. Drink over the coming two decades.
