Casanova di Neri Tenuta Nuova, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Italy 2021
Tenuta Nuova Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2021 is a powerful, modern styled expression of Sangiovese from estate vineyards in southeastern Montalcino, where poor, stony soils and cooling breezes drive both concentration and freshness. Fermented with native yeasts and aged around 30 months in oak, it shows layered notes of black cherry, plum, tobacco, and spice, supported by firm, polished tannins and vibrant acidity. The 2021 vintage stands out for its balance of depth and energy full-bodied yet precise with a long, mineral-driven finish and excellent aging potential.
"The 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova pours a deep red hue and opens with an exceptionally layered bouquet of suede, cigar box, tobacco, black cherries, and plum. Full-bodied, it’s packed with youthful tension at this stage, but it has a seamless, weightless feel, with polished tannins, refreshing acidity, and a flinty mineral edge that keeps the finish lifted and long. It’s a gorgeous Tenuta Nuova that has everything working in harmony and will only improve with time in bottle." Jeb Dunnuck 100
