Casanova di Neri Description
The Brunello Tenuta Nuova 2018 shows a bright, young and ruby red color. The nose reveals nuances of ripe red berries and its usual pronounced balsamic tones. The palate is distinguished by a great complexity. 2018 Tenuta Nuova is rich, elegant, enveloping and salty. Its long and appealing finish suggests an amazing future.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
"Here's a treat from Casanova di Neri. Aged in tonneaux for 30 months, the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova is fleshed out and rich with pretty layers of dark fruit, dried blackberry, spice and cured tobacco. There is a point of sour cherry in this vintage that folds into crushed flower, balsam herb, licorice and crushed stone. The bouquet is classic, but the Casanova di Neri magic touch comes through thanks to the wine's balance and pretty intensity."
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
"Bright and focused, offering cherry, raspberry, rose hip, mushroom, iron and tobacco aromas and flavors. Pure and expressive, with fine harmony, an elegant frame and a lingering aftertaste. Gains support from a firm structure."
Jeb Dunnuck: 96+ Points
"There is more depth to the 2018 Brunello Di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova, with light smoky earth, black cherry, licorice, and black pepper. It is polished with fresh crunchy fruit yet retains a good amount of concentration, with notes of black raspberry, turned fresh soil, and graphite. Mouthwatering, with salinity, fresh acidity, and great length, it has fine tannins and warming spice on the finish."
