Description

Casanova di Neri is a renowned producer of Brunello di Montalcino, a red wine made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes grown in the Montalcino region of Tuscany, Italy. The winery was founded in 1971 by Giovanni Neri, and today it covers over 600 acres, with 140 acres dedicated to vineyards. The history of Brunello di Montalcino dates back to the 14th century, and in 1980 it became the first Italian wine to receive DOCG status, the highest level of quality assurance for Italian wines.

Casanova di Neri's Brunello di Montalcino is made using traditional methods, with a focus on expressing the unique terroir of the Montalcino region. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected, then fermented in stainless steel tanks before being aged in oak barrels for up to 42 months. The resulting wine is a deep ruby red color, with aromas of red fruit, leather, and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and complex, with firm tannins and a long, lingering finish.

In addition to their flagship Brunello di Montalcino, Casanova di Neri also produces a range of other wines, including Rosso di Montalcino, a younger and more approachable version of Brunello, and Tenuta Nuova, a single-vineyard Brunello that is aged for even longer than the flagship wine. The winery also produces a small amount of white wine, made from Vermentino grapes grown on the Tuscan coast.

Overall, Casanova di Neri is a producer that is deeply committed to quality and tradition, with a focus on expressing the unique character of the Montalcino region in their wines. Their Brunello di Montalcino is a benchmark for the style, and is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts around the world.

Tasting notes

94 Points - The wine Advocate

The Neri family has created a classic expression of Sangiovese from a classic vintage, while remaining faithful to the house style. In a nutshell, these wines always tend to offer dark plum, clove and fig confit over the tiny berry and blue flower aromas you get from the traditionalists. That said, this Brunello needs ample time to open, and I suggest you splash it into the decanter.

The Casanova di Neri 2015 Brunello di Montalcino (this is the one with the white label) stays safely within your expectation of the vintage with its variety-driven aromas of wild berry, liquorice, blue flower, and balsam herb. This wine sees fruit sourced from a vineyard on the northeast side of Montalcino, with Galestro soils ranging from 330 to 480 meters above sea level.
