Casanova di Neri 'Giovanni Neri', Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Italy 2020
Brunello Giovanni Neri expresses our tradition and winemaking philosophy, and embraces the values of sustainability, and the territory’s uniqueness. After fifty years from the purchase of the first vineyard, Giacomo, Giovanni and Gianlorenzo named this wine as Casanova di Neri’s founder. A remarkable wine, a pure Sangiovese’s expression born out of an ancient, untamed vineyard with half-century old vines spread over a great winegrowing terroir. While bringing together tradition and innovation is anything but an easy task, the Giovanni Neri manages that with an unmistakable elegance.
A lively and bright young red colour. The bouquet reveals hints of small red berries with a pronounced aroma of blood orange. A Brunello with great finesse and balance. The palate is firm and deep, elegant and vivid. It features well-extracted tannins perfectly integrated with a lively acidity which preludes to an amazing future. A fresh and persistent finish, topped off by an invigorating sapidity.
