The name of the estate apparently derives from "Ca' Pazzo", as shown on some ancient maps. The estate covers an area of 190 hectares, 54 of which are vineyards, 4 are of olive groves, 87 of which are wooded and 45 of which are to be planted with new vines. This impressive Brunelllo begins with aromas of red cherry, red raspberry, thyme and smoke. This leads to flavors of red cherry, anise, red plum, tangerine rind and spicebox alongside light tannins. This represents a good value in Brunello, as this is delicious wine to consume right now. (Best 2016-2030) - January, 2016 (OB)
