Brunello di Montalcino 2021
Reviews
The Wine Advocate 93/100
The Casanova di Neri 2021 Brunello di Montalcino shows dark fruit flavors of plum and soft berry. A glossy texture lends polish and shine to the mouthfeel, while the wine delivers medium-lean weight and moderate length with good brightness and freshness. Aging sees 42 months in large oak casks. This bottling represents the estate’s classic, multi-vineyard village expression, designed to balance consistency, accessibility and regional typicity. Production totals 94,800 bottles.
Here's looking at you, Giovanni. Casanova di Neri stands at a pivotal moment as vintner Giacomo Neri cedes increasing responsibility to his sons, Giovanni and Gianlorenzo. Few estates in Montalcino carry a legacy as decorated or as closely scrutinized, and the weight of that patrimony is especially tangible as the next generation steps forward amid major investments, including the construction of a new winery slated for completion in time for the 2027 harvest. As winemaker, Giovanni Neri inherits not only one of Italy’s most celebrated names but also the formidable task of proving his mettle and vision worthy of a house long defined by ambition and success.
