Its charming nose gives mineral fragrances followed by hints of sour cherry and pink flowers. The juicy palate opens with citrusy sensations enriched by blueberry aromas.

The return of cold temperatures at the end of March has slowed down the vegetative cycle, still the budding has taken place at the same time as the previous vintages. Spring has followed normally, with a mild climate. Flowering and fruit setting have occurred under optimal conditions. In the month of June there have been optimal rainfalls, while the summer has been hot and sunny, without excessive temperatures. All these conditions have contributed to a slow and consistent ripening of the grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCRITICAL ACCLAIM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJS 96 | James Suckling 96 points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Really delicious fruit with cherry and berry character, as well as a hint of cedar. Creamy tannins and fresh acidity. Grapes from the Cerretalto vineyard are used here this year. Drink or hold.\" -- James Suckling, 09\/2024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWA 94 | Wine Advocate 94 points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The Casanova di Neri 2020 Brunello di Montalcino (with the white label) represents a departure from the norm. Because the Cerretalto was not produced, fruit from that vineyard with its reddish mineral-rich soils was directed here instead. For that reason, this wine is especially spicy, lifted and intense. Dark cherry fruit is followed by rusty nail, black pepper and milled spice. The wine is fermented in steel tanks, sees 20 days of skin maceration and ages in botte and tonneaux for over three years. The oak is very well integrated. This is a wine of character (with 98,000 bottles made).\" --Monica Larner, 11\/2024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVN 94 | Vinous 94 points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is dreamy, with a confectionary burst of sweet spice and vivid crushed black cherries complemented by rosy florals. It's juicy, opening with a sweet and sour sensation as hints of cranberry and tart citrus give way to a tactile coating of crunchy mineral tones toward the close. This resonates with tension, long and staining with a tinge of bitter blackberry and tangerine that pucker the cheeks as edgy tannins frame the finish. Gorgeous.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Casanova di Neri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47346252284128,"sku":"123792","price":91.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/casanova-di-neri-brunello-di-montalcino-white-label.gif?v=1746738452","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/casanova-di-neri-brunello-di-montalcino-white-label-2019-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
