CASANOVA DI NERI Brunello di Montalcino 2021
THE WINERY CASANOVA DI NERI
In 1971, Giovanni Neri founded the Casanova di Neri winery after purchasing a vast estate in the Montalcino territory. Giovanni’s goal was to create a great Brunello di Montalcino from premier vineyard sites. Today, as Casanova di Neri has become a model winery in Montalcino and its wines have garnered international acclaim, his son Giacomo, wife Enrichetta, and their children carry on their father Giovanni’s ambitious project.
A fascinating journey, the result of a continuous process of production and philosophical evolution, and a new vision of Brunello di Montalcino that stems from tradition and interprets it with innovation. This is how unique and highly recognizable wines like Tenuta Nuova and Cerretalto were born—full-bodied, powerful reds that are simultaneously characterized by great elegance.
Casanova di Neri boasts a 55-hectare estate of prestigious vineyards, divided into 5 estates: Pietradonica, Le Centine, Cerretalto, Fiesole, and Podernuovo. Each has its own unique characteristics, in terms of both climate and soil type. The winery’s six labels reflect the vineyards from which they originate.
It originates from vineyards with unique characteristics that produce Sangiovese grapes, yielding a highly recognizable wine that combines structure, power, and finesse.
