Founded in 1971, Casanova di Neri is one of Brunello di Montalcino’s crown jewels—a family-run winery that’s racked up more 100-point scores than a somm’s dream journal. It all started when Giovanni Neri bought an estate in eastern Montalcino. Fast forward to the ’90s: son Giacomo took over the reins and brought serious swagger to the vineyards. The iconic Cerretalto vineyard? That’s theirs. The groundbreaking Tenuta Nuova? Yep, also theirs.Â
These aren’t just wines; they’re mic-drop moments in a glass. In 2006, their 2001 Tenuta Nuova Brunello was crowned Wine Spectator’s Wine of the Year. A year later, Cerretalto nailed a perfect 100. Since then? Scoreboard’s lit.Â
But don’t let the points distract you—the real magic is in the terroir. Montalcino’s microclimates, obsessive attention to detail, and a relentless drive for quality all come together in wines that can charm your palate at five years old—or stun you at twenty-five. Classic meets cutting edge. Just how family likes it. Â

Did you know?
Tenuta Nuova isn’t just a name—it’s a revolution. Crafted for early approachability but built for the long haul, it shows Sangiovese’s softer side. Meanwhile, Brunello Giovanni Neri is pure heritage in a glass, made from 50-year-old vines. Think boldness meets nostalgia.Â
