Casanova di Neri Tenuta Nuova, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Italy 2020
Tenuta Nuova is a pioneering and visionary vineyard project emboding the belief and passion of Casanova di Neri. Tenuta Nuova means new property; Tenuta Nuova is a place where nobody planted Sangiovese before; Tenuta Nuova is the will of Casanova di Neri to produce a powerful yet drinkable Brunello with a high ageing potential. The project began with the study of varied local microclimates and their optimal exposures. Through a cautious and passionate research Casanova di Neri has used the most sophisticated scientific investigations to determine the clones, rootstocks, cultivation practices, plant density per hectare and every possible particular to obtain excellent Sangiovese grapes.
On the nose, Tenuta Nuova 2020 exhibits its full complexity, commencing with cloves, laurel and wild blackberries before progressing to fragrances of almonds and cherry. In the mouth it is full-bodied and generous with vibrant, fine-grained and velvety tannins. The finish is fragrant and extraordinarily long with clear hints of licorice.
