From Casanova di Neri in Italy’s Montalcino, the Tenuta Nuova Brunello di Montalcino 2019 is a refined 100% Sangiovese sourced from the 20-hectare Tenuta Nuova vineyard on clay-limestone soils in the southern zone, where lower elevation and warmer microclimate impart richness and structure. Hand-harvested grapes from the balanced 2019 vintage—marked by warm days and cool nights yielding concentrated yet elegant fruit—undergo fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, followed by 36 months' aging in large Slavonian oak casks and 12 months in bottle to foster integration and depth. Committed to sustainable practices, this pioneering single-vineyard Brunello yields a deep garnet wine with profound intensity and graceful poise.
Tasting Notes An elegant, powerful red with ripe dark fruit and refined spice, reflecting Montalcino’s clay-limestone terroir. The nose reveals black cherry, licorice, violet, and hints of graphite, tobacco, and balsamic herbs. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet refined, with velvety tannins, vibrant acidity, and flavors of dark plum, mineral earthiness, and subtle oak, leading to a long, persistent finish.
Awards and Accolades The 2019 Tenuta Nuova earned 98 points from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate for its seamless texture and exceptional aging potential.
