This is one of the absolute top wines from Montalcino from the Casanova di Neri estate. This wine was the first Brunello where the highest quality was pursued and the land was worked with great respect. The grapes were picked by hand in September. The grapes were then fermented for a period of 23 days. The maturation of this wine took place for a period of 29 months in French oak barrels of 500 liters, after which the further maturation in the bottle was continued for at least another year. This producer belongs to the new generation of Brunello producers. The company was started in 1971, when Giovanni Neri bought the largest estate in the Montalcino area. The estate has a total of 39 hectares and is divided into 4 vineyards. The oldest vineyard is 50 years old. The vineyards are located at an altitude of approximately 350 meters above sea level. Casanova di Neri is one of the best producers of Brunello wines.
The Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova from the Casanova di Neri estate belongs to the absolute top among the Brunellos and the 2013 is a very beautiful vintage ever and also gets 97 and 98/100 pints from Parker and Suckling. This Brunello goes further than any other Brunello. Everything about this wine is nuanced and complex. Casanova di Neri has the unique quality to harvest during the optimal ripeness and this is very precise and this ultimately makes a huge difference in the glass. It is difficult to stay away from this wine but let it lie for a few more years. Collectors and investors will certainly leave this wine for another 10 years, but we advise to uncork the first bottle from 2022 and the storage potential is until 2040+

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | De 2020 Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova toont rijp kersen- en pruimenfruit naast viooltjes, mediterrane kruiden, zoethout en een subtiele ceder- en mineraaltoon, met verfijnde, stevige tannines en frisse zuren die de wijn zowel rijk als gespierd maken. Hierdoor snijdt hij heerlijk door het vet en de hartige smaken van rundvlees, lamsvlees en wild, vult hij de kruidigheid van pappardelle met wildragù aan en vormt hij met gerijpte Toscaanse kazen een perfecte balans tussen zout en fruit; ook bij pizza met rijk beleg geeft de zuurgraad structuur. Extra geslaagde bereidingswijzen zijn een Fiorentina of medium-rare entrecote van de grill, langzaam gegaarde runder- of wildstoofstukken, gegrild lam met rozemarijn en knoflook en krachtige, gerijpte kazen zoals pecorino of een jonge parmigiano. |

The Casanova di Neri 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova stands apart in the context of this portfolio. I get a distinctly creamy note that cedes to almond paste, sweet cherry and chalky stone. The wine is open-knit and generous with velvety tannins and no bitterness on the finish. It has the bulk and the fresh fruit concentration for long cellar aging. It is texturally rich, ending with hints of cedar spice and something that reminds me of freshly broken tree branches. Yields were down by about 15% in this vintage. The wine matures in 500-liter barrels for 30 months, and 63,000 bottles were created.
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.

This is vibrant and fresh with firm, integrated tannins that melt into the wine. Medium-bodied, but with tension, focus and length. A bitter-orange note comes through. Drinkable now, but better in 2026.
