Depth here is almost architectural: Casanova di Neri’s 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto layers black cherry and plum with graphite-like minerality, wild herbs, dark spice and a cool, stony undertone. The palate is powerful yet poised, with soaring acidity, tightly woven, authoritative tannins and a finish that seems to echo on with hints of blood orange, licorice and dark florals. A monumental, long-haul Cerretalto that captures the radiance and precision of the vintage with remarkable clarity and drive.

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.
