Casanova di Neri, Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova 2017

Casanova di Neri’s Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova 2017 is a benchmark expression of modern Brunello: powerful, precise, and beautifully approachable while still built for the long haul. Born from a visionary vineyard project where no Sangiovese had been planted before, it showcases the estate’s meticulous approach to site selection and winemaking, combining elegance, depth, and outstanding aging potential.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the classic depth and intensity expected from top Brunello, with a vivid core of red fruit and a polished, structured appearance. The bouquet is expressive and layered, opening with young red berries, blackberry, and the hallmark balsamic note that adds lift and complexity. On the palate, the wine is rich and persistent, with a full, harmonious structure and silky tannins that give it both presence and finesse. The finish is long and refined, leaving a sense of balance between strength and elegance. While already impressive, Tenuta Nuova 2017 has the concentration and structure to develop beautifully over many years in bottle.

Production
Tenuta Nuova was created after extensive research into Montalcino’s microclimates, exposures, clones, rootstocks, spacing, and vineyard practices, all with the goal of producing exceptional Sangiovese from a site chosen specifically for this project. The grapes are harvested by hand from late September to early October, with careful hand selection before and after destemming. Fermentation is carried out naturally without added yeast, followed by maceration in an open, cone-shaped, temperature-controlled tank for 36 days. The wine then matures for an additional 12 months in wood before release.

Food & Serving
This Brunello pairs wonderfully with rich Tuscan dishes, roasted red meats, game, braised lamb, and mushroom-based recipes, as well as aged cheeses. Serve it at around 16–18°C; decanting for at least 1–2 hours is recommended to allow the wine to fully open and show its aromatic complexity.

Casanova di Neri is one of Montalcino’s most respected producers, widely recognized for combining traditional Brunello character with a precise, contemporary vision of quality. Founded on a commitment to exceptional vineyard sites and meticulous craftsmanship, the estate has earned a strong reputation for producing wines of depth, purity, and longevity, with Tenuta Nuova standing as one of its most celebrated achievements.
