About Winery and Wines
Caprili is one of the historic founding wineries of Montalcino, with a story that intertwines deeply with the land and its traditions. The estate was established in 1965, when Alberto and his son Alfo purchased Podere Caprili, a property where they had already lived and worked as sharecroppers since 1952. That same year, they planted their very first vineyard, affectionately named “Madre” (Mother).
In 1978, Caprili proudly bottled its first Brunello di Montalcino, and by 1983, the winery officially entered the world of wine commerce. Since then, it has become a respected name in Tuscan winemaking, celebrated for its authenticity and deep-rooted connection to the terroir.
Today, the estate spans 58 hectares in the southwestern quadrant of the Montalcino appellation, an area known for producing elegant, structured wines. Caprili remains a proud family-run business, now in the hands of Alfo’s three children — Paola, Manuele, and Paolo — alongside the new generation represented by Giacomo (son of Manuele) and Filippo (son of Paola). Their work carries forward the legacy of Caprili with a shared respect for tradition, family, and the land.
The Caprili estate covers an area of 58 hectares, southwest of the territory in the municipality of Montalcino. The area planted with vines is 25 hectares, of which 23 hectares are planted with Sangiovese Grosso, 0.3 hectares are planted with Trebbiano Malvasia, 1 ha with Vermentino and 0.7 hectares are planted with Moscadello.
