Brunello di Montalcino  Casanova di Neri 2014Brunello di Montalcino  Casanova di Neri 2014

Casanova di Neri is the outcome of a process of productive and philosophical evolution, a new vision of Brunello di Montalcino that interprets tradition in a different innovative way.

A profound commitment and respect for the land, a conviction that it is the lynchpin for the production of unique wines and that the care given in treating the grapes in the winery according to their varying characteristics is what we value most.

OUR HISTORYFounded in 1971 by Giovanni NeriCasanova di Neri does in fact stands for the Casanova Estate of the Neri Family..

Finally the production started in the Eastern part of Montalcino and was extended later in other areas.

The acquisition of Cerretalto was followed by that of Le Cetine, Pietradonice and then Podernovo.

All this by researching the best soil and exposures so as to produce unique and recognizable wines.
The first Brunello harvest was 1978.

This was followed by Cerretalto1981, Rosso di Montalcino 1982, Tenuta Nuova 1993, Pietradonice 2000, IrRosso di Casanova di Neri and the last one Ibbianco 2011.

In the course of our small yet at the same time great history we have received awards from the most important reviews and opinion leaders of national and international wine critics.

Currently the estate covers a surface of around 500 hectares of which 63 are vineyards, 20 olive groves and the rest arable land and forest.

Tasting notes:

Born of vineyards with unique characteristics that produce Sangiovese grapes and give a wine of great distinction and unique structure, potency and fineness.

Captivating and complex in its fragrances, profound in its width yet able to express in delightful flavours, in the style of the estate. It lends itself to a lengthy evolution through the years but also drunk young it will give great satisfaction.

Ever since its first harvest in 1993 it has had constant amazing recognition from the world press.

Ruby red with garnet reflections, hints of maraschino cherries, violets and red fruits.Great fineness in the mouth with a tannin still young yet great quality.Long elegant and persistent.

Serve at a temperature of 16° - 17° having opened the bottle a few hours previously or decant delicately.
