Born of vineyards with unique characteristics that produce Sangiovese grapes and give a wine of great distinction and unique structure potency and fineness. Captivating and complex in its fragrances profound in its width yet able to express in delightful flavours in the style of our estate. It lends itself to a lengthy evolution through the years but also drunk young it will give great satisfaction. Ever since its first harvest in 1993 it has had constant amazing recognition from the world press."

Vinous: 92 Points

"Casanova di Neri's 2003 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova caresses the palate with plenty of silky-textured dark red cherries plums smoke earthiness and sweet toasted oak. This polished modern-styled wine offers superb balance in a rich weighty style that will find many admirers. The tannins are remarkably well-integrated which is quite a feat in this vintage. To be sure there isn't much of what could be called varietal character here but by any definition this is a beautiful wine on an absolute level. The Tenuta Nuova spent 30 months in 600-liter barrels of which 35% were new. "

"Intense aromas of blackberry licorice and black cherry. Full-bodied with fine tannins and a chewy finish. Has impressive structure for the vintage. Very well-made. "
