Introduction:
The 2019 Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino White Label is a benchmark expression of Brunello, showcasing the estate’s commitment to power, elegance, and precision. This wine delivers intense red fruit, refined tannins, and complex earthy notes, embodying the classic characteristics of Sangiovese Grosso from Montalcino.

Terrior:
Sourced from estate vineyards on the southeastern slopes of Montalcino, the vines grow in a mix of galestro, clay, and limestone soils. The warm Mediterranean climate is moderated by cooling breezes, allowing for slow, even ripening. This balance of warmth and freshness contributes to the wine’s depth, structure, and aging potential.

Appearance:
Deep ruby red with garnet reflections, indicating youth with aging potential.

Nose:
Highly aromatic and complex, with layers of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and plum, intertwined with dried roses, tobacco, cedar, and hints of baking spice. Earthy undertones of leather and forest floor add further depth.

Palate:
Full-bodied with firm yet velvety tannins. Vibrant acidity supports a rich core of red fruit flavors, complemented by notes of anise, dark chocolate, and crushed herbs. The wine’s structure is powerful yet refined, with a silky texture that unfolds beautifully as it breathes.

Finish:
Exceptionally long and lingering, with red fruit, spice, and mineral-driven elegance that suggest further evolution with aging.

Overall Impression:
A masterfully crafted Brunello that balances intensity with finesse. While already impressive, this wine will continue to develop over the next 15–20 years, revealing even greater complexity. Decanting is recommended if enjoying in its youth. Ideal pairings include braised short ribs, wild game, truffle-infused pasta, or aged Pecorino cheese.
