Tenuta Nuova is Casanova di Neri’s concentrated expression of Brunello, made from Sangiovese. Its cuvée style places ripe cherry and darker fruit within a firm, polished structure, with a savory edge and lasting freshness. It is a fuller-bodied choice than an everyday Tuscan red, without implying how this 2009 bottle tastes today.

The producer
Casanova di Neri developed Tenuta Nuova by studying vineyard sites beyond Montalcino’s established plantings, seeking a distinctive expression of Sangiovese. First released with the 1993 vintage, the wine represents a separate vineyard project within the family estate rather than a generic reserve label.
