Wine Spectator
Aromas of white truffle, berries and mahogany follow through to a full body, with a solid core of fruit and velvety, refined tannins. Fresh and very pretty. Dense. I like this better than the 2001. Best after 2008. 1,650 cases made. —James Suckling,

Wine Advocate
The single-vineyard 2003 Brunello di Montalcino La Casa is simply gorgeous. Ripe dark fruit, spices, leather and sweet toasted oak all flow from this ample, generous wine. The plumpness of the fruit is beautifully balanced by the wine's structural components, which show an added level of richness over the regular bottling. Caparzo's La Casa is a very satisfying glass of Brunello in 2003. Readers won't want to miss this wine, which is one of the standouts of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2018. —Antonio Galloni,

Plum, tobacco, chestnut and spicy oak on the nose. Lusher and deeper than the basic bottling but not particularly sweet today. A chewy oak component gives the wine structure and life but calls for a couple years of patience. Finishes with big, ripe tannins and very good focus.
