Lovely ripe fruit on the nose, with cranberries, plums, morello cherries, white truffles, red tea and white pepper. The tannins are very fine, creamy and expansive. Coating and generous, yet fresh. Wonderful length and depth. From a 7-hectare parcel of 50-year old vines. Try this from 2025.

Here's an exciting and important new addition to the Casanova di Neri portfolio. The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Giovanni Neri is shapely and enriched in an extremely pleasing manner. The Neri family has perfected its approach to concentration and fruit weight over the many years they have been making excellent wines. This wine gives the appearance of being full-bodied, but ultimately, it reveals a very elegant side. Ripe cherry and blackberry cede to oak spice, toast and crushed white stone. The tannins are softly pliable and sweet. Compared to the estate's other wines, Tenuta Nuova and Cerretalto, Giovanni Neri is finer and more delicate, even fragile in personality. Some 5,400 bottles were made in this inaugural release.

Casanova di Neri
One of the region’s most impressive up-and-comers, Casanova di Neri was founded in 1971 by Giovanni Neri. Today, the Montalcino estate is run by Giovanni’s son – Giacomo Neri. Home to over 500 hectares, of which 63 are vineyards, Casanova di Neri’s property is broken up into 7 vineyards in the Montalcino region – Fiesole, Poderuccio, Podernuovo, Le Cetine, Pietradonice, Cerratalto and Spereta. As one of Italy’s most respected wineries, they craft a wholesome selection of wines - including a white blend of Vermentino and Grechetto, as well as a few easy drinking reds produced from Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and/or Colorino and of course, a handful of top Brunellos. Renowned for their elegant, modern style, Casanova di Neri remains as one of the leading producers – producing powerful, lush wines year after year. Their most exclusive and rich Brunellos are single-vineyard bottlings – Tenuta Nuova and Cerretalto.
