Critic reviews
"The Casanova di Neri 2021 Brunello di Montalcino shows dark fruit flavors of plum and soft berry. A glossy texture lends polish and shine to the mouthfeel, while the wine delivers medium-lean weight and moderate length with good brightness and freshness. Aging sees 42 months in large oak casks. This bottling represents the estate’s classic, multi-vineyard village expression, designed to balance consistency, accessibility and regional typicity. Production totals 94,800 bottles."

"The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino is an understated beauty, mixing dusty rose and lavender with shavings of blood orange and black cherries. It is surprisingly juicy yet elegant and refined, as ripe wild berry fruits slowly drench the palate in primary concentration. Structured and dramatically long, the 2021 finishes spicy and intense with nuances of citrus, clove and licorice. The complexity here is off the charts and the energy is incredible."

"A soft and crunchy wine with plenty of red cherry, light chocolate and orange peel aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with creamy, open-grained tannins and a savory, juicy finish. Drink or hold."
James Suckling, December 2025, JamesSuckling.com
"Not to diminish Casanova di Neri’s single-vineyard offerings, but in 2021, my money is on the white label. This bottling brings together the estate’s historic parcels in the cool district of Torrenieri, and it will need a few more years before unveiling its full potential. For now, traces of damp earth, black tea and cinnamon bark transpire with coaxing. The tight and sinewy frame guards the fruit closely but allows gorgeous floral perfumes to slowly seep out. Fine, chalky tannins are long and tactile. Very zesty too."
