Casanova Di Neri - Sant Antimo "Pietradonice" 2003 Ml. 750
Winery Casanova Di Neri
Characteristic
A wine born from our cabernet sauvignon in the vineyards south of Montalcino where a combination of careful farming practices, the right ratio of vines, the unique microclimate and soil components have resulted in a wine of exceptional analytical values. It stands as an interpretation of this variety in Montalcino, the fruit of a vineyard project eager to confront itself with an "international" grape variety. A profound red wine, with a complex, a superb aromatic chiaroscuro the uniqueness of the territory in its richness of flavours, its fulsome tannins perfectly melded in the smooth persistent length of its taste. Particularly elegant and with great fineness, it is the fruit of a high- level vintage that led to the harvest of grapes with the perfect level of ripeness.

Winery
L'anno è il 1971 Casanova di Neri nasce grazie a Giovanni Neri. Nel 1991 lascia le mani al figlio Giacomo. L'azienda ha una visione nuova del Brunello di Montalcino che parte dalla tradizione della quale dà un' interpretazione diversa e innovativa. Per prima la vigna di Cerretalto dove oltre ad un terroir unico inserito in un anfiteatro naturale sul torrente Asso trova nel vecchio vigneto anche un Sangiovese diverso dagli altri. Passano gli anni, l'azienda si espande acquistando la vigna di Cerretalto, Le Cetine, Pietradonice e Podernuovo, sempre seguendo la ricerca dei migliori terreni ed esposizioni per produrre vini unici e riconoscibili.
