Note di degustazione
Aged for 43 months in botte. Transparent garnet. Intense, alluring nose. Round and with softer tannins than most of the Chianti Classico 2014s I have just been tasting – although they do make their presence felt on the very end. The fruit could certainly support the long period in oak. A rich, pleasing wine. (JR)

White label. Deep ruby. Lifted, sweet marasca cherry with a cool edge. Sweet fruit with amazing concentration and length for this vintage. Perhaps the tannins are a little hard, but there is plenty of fruit on the finish to counteract them. Great effort for the vintage. (WS)
Wild red fruit and orange zest with cedar and wild herbs. The cherries here are fresh and lively and the tannins cut a sturdy, even frame around impressively long, fresh flavors. The only Brunello made here in 2014; there are no single vineyard bottlings. Drink or hold.
This is the white label Brunello from Giacomo Neri and his son Giovanni. The 2014 Brunello di Montalcino is faithful to the vintage with a compact and streamlined style that suggests a near or medium-term drinking window. In general, I am hesitant to recommend this vintage for any significant cellar aging, and one reason is because these wines perform nicely straight out of the gate. The same goes for this relatively easy expression that is redolent of wild berry, rose hip, blue flower and moist potting soil. Because the Brunelli Tenuta Nuova and Cerretalto were not made in this vintage, this wine represents a blend of fruit from across the estate. This is the first time this has happened at Casanova di Neri. Bottle production is 75,669 strong.
