Dark cherry and plum depth define the 2018 Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto, layered with graphite, balsamic-tinged herbs, and a subtle earthy spice. Full-bodied and powerful yet fresh, it shows dense, chalky but refined tannins and a long, savory finish edged with mineral and a hint of citrus lift. A structured, concentrated Cerretalto with a slightly evolved fruit profile that promises impressive complexity in the cellar.

Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto by Casanova di Neri is a single-vineyard, 100% Sangiovese cru from an iron- and mineral-rich natural amphitheater above the Asso River east of Montalcino, famed for its very low yields and distinctive graphite, ferrous and sanguine notes. Produced only in selected vintages and aged for an extended period in oak and bottle, it is a powerful yet finely structured Brunello with exceptional depth, length and ageing potential, widely regarded as the estate’s flagship and one of the denomination’s benchmark wines.
