    In 1978, the first bottle of Brunello from Casanova di Neri found its way onto the market – then still called "Vino Rosso dai Vigneti di Brunello", five years after the first harvest. Giovanni Neri had found his dream and his son Giacomo began to realise it. The white label was there from the very beginning – and still is today. The Brunello White Label comes from specially designated vineyards around Podere Fiesole to the east of Montalcino – the same vineyards from which the estate has been making its Brunello for over four decades. After a cool, slow spring, 2021 brought a balancing, dry summer and even ripening into September.

    The result is surprisingly juicy: deep, bright ruby red in colour. Wild berries, laurel, sage and juniper berries on the nose – fresh and precise. Juicy and elegant on the palate, with lively tannins, a spicy flavour and a long, linear final. The entry into Casanova di Neri's Brunello world – and not a bad one. SUPERIORE.DE
