This is a Brunello built from scratch. "Tenuta Nuova" means "new property," and Casanova di Neri planted it on Montalcino land where nobody had grown Sangiovese before, choosing clones, rootstocks, farming methods and planting density from scientific research. In 2013, budding and flowering came late, then a cool, sunny summer with steady rain gave slow, even ripening, and picking by hand ran from late September into early October. It's 100% Sangiovese, fermented with native yeasts in open cone-shaped vats, then aged 36 months in oak and another year in bottle before release. If you like Brunello with substance and some bottle age behind it, this one is worth a look. Follow the producer's advice: open it at least two hours ahead or decant it gently.

"Bright deep red. The youthfully reticent nose hints at flinty red cherry, blueberry, graphite, cedar and pepper. Then flavors similar to the aromas, and a tight acid spine and serious but polished tannins nicely extending and framing the brooding fruit notes and peppery flintiness on the long, deep, complex finish. A truly outstanding Tenuta Nuova Brunello that seems less fruit-forward and more shut down than usual but holds exciting promise. Interestingly, some of this wine’s elements, such as its flinty nuances, reminded me of Casanova di Neri’s Cerretalto Brunello (made with grapes grown at the opposite end of the Montalcino territory). I guess my palate needs to take a vacation. This knockout wine will age splendidly and will likely merit an even higher score in eight to ten years’ time." —Ian D'Agata

"Casanova di Neri's 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova is celebrating its 20th anniversary (1993-2013), and a special gold-label edition of the wine was made to commemorate this important milestone. This is a bold and expressive Brunello that displays tightly knit aromas of Morello cherry, spice, leather and balsam herb that are the building blocks of the most beautiful Brunellos that come to mind. The Casanova di Neri house style implies a modern and sophisticated approach for sure. But the inner spirit and texture of Sangiovese is so fine and polished in its natural state that it hardly matters. The personality of the grape shines through with a loud and confident voice." —Monica Larner

"Sweet, ripe strawberry and cherry fruit melds seamlessly with the dense, refined structure of this red. Saline, licorice and spice accents add complexity as this lingers gracefully on the finish. Terrific harmony and expression. Best from 2021 through 2037."

More about Casanova Di Neri

Casanova di Neri is a benchmark producer in the rarefied world of Brunello. Founded by Giovanni Neri in 1971 this gorgeous estate and full working farm is now run by his son Giacomo along with his two boys, Giovanni and Gianlorenzo. Together they continue the family tradition of finding and working with the best terroir in Montalcino to produce unique and distinctive wines. Over the years they have acquired an enviable array of vineyards, 75 hectares in total divided into six distinct zones according to terroir.

The farm is situated in some of the loveliest countryside Tuscany has to offer. All of the farming is done with the utmost respect for nature and the wealth of resources it provides. Vineyard work is meticulous and the estate is proud of the fact that many of their workers have been there for decades. With so much generational knowledge and shared experience the folks at Neri produce some of the most pristine fruit out there resulting in wine with exceptional character and complexity.

A lot of care goes into the gentle handling of the grapes after harvest. In order to achieve this the cellar is partially underground allowing for the grapes and wine to be processed by gravity, inherently gentler than using pumps. Wines are fermented and barrelled down underground where they will age in the cellars constant cool temperature and high humidity. All of this work culminates in what are both incredibly classic yet unique expressions of Montalcino terroir.

Over the years, the wines Casanova di Neri have received a continuous string of accolades from critics and enthusiasts in every corner of the world. Originally starting with only one wine the estate now makes 8 different cuvees.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Bistecca alla fiorentina; pappardelle with wild boar ragù; rosemary-roasted leg of lamb; braised beef cheeks in red wine; aged Pecorino di Pienza.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Brunello profile: dark cherry and plum, dried herbs, leather and earthy tobacco notes, with a touch of spice from three years in oak. Typically full-bodied and powerful, with firm, fine-grained tannins and lively acidity, finishing long, dry and savoury. Built to age, it rewards decanting.
