  • Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino TENUTA NUOVA 2010:
    Wine Spectator, 95 pts.,
    Wine Advocate, 100 pts.,
    J. Suckling 100 pts.: This is very tannic and powerful with loads of currants, spices and hints of wood. So much stone and mineral character to this. Violets, too. Full-bodied, tight and structured. Massively dense yet agile and bright. It goes on for minutes. -James Suckling.
  • Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino TENUTA NUOVA 2012:
    Wine Spectator, 94 pts.,
    Wine Advocate, 96 pts.: This edition of Casanova di Neri‘s celebrated single-vineyard wine opens to a luminous garnet color and exuberant fruit aromas. It offers a lot to the bouquet, from sweet cherry aromas to savory tones of tobacco and leather. This wine shows a powerful inner motor of flavor concentration and density that propels it forward. All that density and richness wraps thickly over the palate. This is a lasting wine of brawn and muscle. – Monica Larner.

EXCLUSIVE & PRIVATE experience includes:

• Guided tour of entire winery and vineyards.
• VERTICAL custom tasting of the wine born 50 years ago and today on TOP 100.
• Custom LUNCH created to experiment the wines of Casanova di Neri in perfect food pairing.

NO FRILLS

Wines that stand out from the crowd and lift up their heads among thousands of others.

  • Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino TENUTA NUOVA 2013*:
    Wine Spectator, 96 pts.,
    Wine Advocate, 97 pts.,
    J. Suckling 98 pts.: A vivid and bright red with intense blueberries and raspberries. Floral undertones and tons of citrus, too! Full-bodied, dense and layered. Polished tannins and fantastic fruit. The muscularity of the structure is what gives this wine focus and intensity. So serious for the vintage. Give it time to show its greatness. Drink in 2022 – James Suckling
  • Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino TENUTA NUOVA 2016*:
    Wine Spectator, 95 pts.,
    Wine Advocate, 97 pts.:
    J. Suckling 99 pts.: Aromas of blackberries, cherries, violets and bark with mahogany. It’s full-bodied and chewy with intense tannins that are layered and focused. The fruit is pure and purposeful, yet not over done. Wonderful strength and purity to this. CLASS is the word – James Suckling

“Playing the music of Da Vinci”

At Casanova di Neri we believe in making wines that incarnate the idea of beauty, wines marked in every element by their purity and harmony, from their tannins to their color and aroma.

Our wines aim for the perfect proportions but also the tension of Leonardo Da Vinci’s Vitruvian Man, in which beauty is not a state of repose but one of pent-up energy, a state that represents a continual striving for the infinite.
