Persoonlijke gegevens
This red wine comes from Montalcino, the area of the Tuscan top wines. This high class Brunello is full of fragrance, with hints of sweet spices and ripe fruit.
The grapes are harvested manually in mid-September. After harvesting, the grapes are fermented for a period of 19 days. The further maturation of this wine took place during a period of 42 months in Slavonian oak barrels of 40 and 77 hl, after which the further maturation in the bottle was continued for at least another year.
This classic Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino from the great year 2017 has beautiful aromas of raspberry, tar, hazelnut, dried fig, asphalt and some broken chalk. The wine is streamlined and compact in mouthfeel, giving us an accessible Brunello from a leading estate in Montalcino. It is best to open these bottles a few hours before serving him in his youthful years. The wine then opens gently and becomes so much more beautiful.
Casanova di Neri belongs to the new generation of Brunello producers. The company started in 1971, when Giovanni Neri bought the largest estate in the Montalcino area. The domain is a total of 39 hectares and divided into 4 vineyards. The oldest vineyard is 45 years old. The vineyards are located at an altitude of about 350 meters above sea level. Casanova di Neri is one of the best producers of Brunello wines.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | De 2020 Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino toont rijpe kersen en donkere bessen met viooltjes, mediterrane kruiden, zwarte peper en een fijne, gepolijste tanninestructuur ondersteund door frisse zuren en subtiele aardse, minerale tonen. Dankzij die combinatie van geconcentreerd fruit, levendige aciditeit en geïntegreerd hout werkt de wijn uitstekend bij krachtig rood vlees, lamsgerechten, wild, rijke pastagerechten en gerijpte kazen; de zuren snijden door vet en tomatensauzen terwijl de tannines een stevige tegenhanger vormen voor rijke eiwitten. Extra geslaagd worden combinaties met gegrilde of gebraden bereidingen zoals bistecca alla Fiorentina of lamsrack met rozemarijn, langzaam gestoofde ragù of ossobuco en stevige, gerijpte kazen zoals Parmigiano Reggiano. |

The Casanova di Neri 2020 Brunello di Montalcino (with the white label) represents a departure from the norm. Because the Cerretalto was not produced, fruit from that vineyard with its reddish mineral-rich soils was directed here instead. For that reason, this wine is especially spicy, lifted and intense. Dark cherry fruit is followed by rusty nail, black pepper and milled spice. The wine is fermented in steel tanks, sees 20 days of skin maceration and ages in botte and tonneaux for over three years. The oak is very well integrated. This is a wine of character (with 98,000 bottles made).
In 2020, the Neri family did not make its flagship wine, Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto. Grapes for that wine were directed to the white-label 2020 Brunello di Montalcino instead. It's been exciting to watch an evolution of style underway at this winery that comes with a new generation now fully involved in the cellar. Giacomo Neri's winemaking style focused on more concentration with pump-overs and punch-downs, but sons Giovanni and Gianlorenzo have tweaked the house style to focus on less extraction and more fruit balance instead. They are experimenting with softer cap management, bigger woods and some whole-cluster fermentation (used partially in the Brunello di Montalcino Giovanni Neri, for example). These are very exciting times for the Casanova di Neri brand.
