Casanova di Neri, Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova 2018

Casanova di Neri’s Tenuta Nuova is one of Brunello di Montalcino’s most visionary single-vineyard projects, created from scratch on land where Sangiovese had never previously been planted. The result is a wine that combines real power with remarkable drinkability, while offering the depth and structure expected from a Brunello built for long ageing.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Tenuta Nuova shows a deep, vibrant ruby color that hints at both concentration and freshness. The nose is expressive and intense, opening with youthful red fruits, blackberry, and the signature balsamic lift that gives the wine its unmistakable character. On the palate, it is full-bodied and layered, with a broad, persistent structure and silky tannins that keep the wine poised and refined. The finish is long and memorable, balancing elegance and force in a way that suggests excellent ageing potential over many years.

Production
Tenuta Nuova was developed after extensive research into the local microclimates of Montalcino, with careful attention paid to exposure, clone selection, rootstocks, planting density, and cultivation methods. The grapes are harvested by hand from late September to early October, with manual sorting before and after destemming. Fermentation takes place naturally without added yeast in open, temperature-controlled conical vats, followed by a 36-day maceration and then 12 months of ageing in wood before release.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for rich Tuscan fare and hearty dishes such as bistecca alla Fiorentina, roast lamb, braised beef, game, or pappardelle with wild boar ragu. Serve at 16–18°C and consider decanting for at least 1–2 hours, especially if drinking young, to allow the wine’s aromas and structure to open fully.

Producer
Casanova di Neri is one of the most respected names in Montalcino, known for a precise, modern approach that still remains deeply rooted in Tuscan tradition. The estate has earned an international reputation for producing Brunello wines of exceptional quality, with Tenuta Nuova standing out as one of its most admired and ambitious achievements.
