Brunello di Montalcino Casanova di Neri 2012

Casanova di Neri is the outcome of a process of productive and philosophical evolution, a new vision of Brunello di Montalcino that interprets tradition in a different innovative way.

A profound commitment and respect for the land, a conviction that it is the lynchpin for the production of unique wines and that the care given in treating the grapes in the winery according to their varying characteristics is what we value most.

OUR HISTORY

• Founded in 1971 by Giovanni Neri
• Casanova di Neri does in fact stands for the Casanova Estate of the Neri Family..

Finally the production started in the Eastern part of Montalcino and was extended later in other areas.

The acquisition of Cerretalto was followed by that of Le Cetine, Pietradonice and then Podernovo.

All this by researching the best soil and exposures so as to produce unique and recognizable wines.
The first Brunello harvest was 1978.

This was followed by Cerretalto1981, Rosso di Montalcino 1982, Tenuta Nuova 1993, Pietradonice 2000, IrRosso di Casanova di Neri and the last one Ibbianco 2011.

In the course of our small yet at the same time great history we have received awards from the most important reviews and opinion leaders of national and international wine critics.

Currently the estate covers a surface of around 500 hectares of which 63 are vineyards, 20 olive groves and the rest arable land and forest.

PHILOSOPHY

The family believes that wines are the fruit of the vineyard and of man’s labour.

A constant search for particular soils that exalt the quality and uniqueness of our wines and farming practices that respect the land and the vines are followed by attentive care in the making of the wine.

Our wines are the fruit of exceptional combinations of soils and microclimates together with passionate and meticulous work enabling us to obtain constant results and to enhance the distinct features of the grapes throughout the different vintages.

WHO THEY ARE

Giacomo Neri and his family manage the estate directly together with a group of collaborators with whom they form a closely knit team.
