The Casanova di Neri 2019 Brunello di Montalcino shows thick fruit fabric with stitchings of underbrush, pressed rosé, bright cherry, tobacco and balanced oak spice. This wine definitely has a special groove. It offers a ripe, round texture with good acidity followed by fine, chalky tannins.
The core of ripe cherry fruit is complemented by woodsy, mushroom, iron, spice and saline flavors in this intense red, with a long, resonant aftertaste. Though balanced, this could benefit from a few more years to really hit its sweet spot.
Bright red and young. On the nose it is intriguing and generous, notes of bergamot, wild violet, cherry and morello cherry stand out. On the palate it is relaxed and harmonious, intense and succulent. The finish is of great balance, clear, savory and pressing. It presents a great drink but will be best enjoyed in a few years.
For over five decades, the Neri family has honoured its founding patriarch Giovanni Neri's vision of vinifying age worthy Brunello Di Montalcino wines that set the standard for Sangiovese Grosso in Tuscany's prestigious DOCG. The estate owns 63 acres in
Eastern Montalcino's Sesta Bassa area which enjoys a unique Mediterranean micro climate that imbues the fruit with phenolic depth. Giacomo Neri who took over from his father in 1991 has created style driven by age old viticulture and modern fruit forward vinification. The result is an evolved palate of concentrated red fruit, sweet spices and oak maturity sat gently on a finish of firm tannins.
