Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova 2007

Wine Enthusiast

Gorgeous, opulent and rich, Tenuta Nuova is an unforgettable wine. It has body, power, persistence and loads of plush personality. It is layered with chocolate, cherry, blackberry, spice, leather and savory notes. There's a deep mineral layer as well. Compelling and lovely.

James Suckling

This is not the perfect 100-point 2006, but damn close. Loads of black cherries and spices on the nose. Full-bodied, with a beautiful core of fruit. Long and gorgeous finish. This is so long and beautiful to taste. Lasts for minutes.

Falstaff

Crisp, intense fruit, like cherries and plums, covered in fine caramel. Lots of rich, ripe fruit on the palate, like cherry jam, pomegranate, compact tannins, surrounded by sweet melting, long finish. Tasted March 2018

Vinous

The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova saturates the palate with masses of super-ripe dark fruit, tar, licorice and new leather. The Tenuta Nuova is an especially full-bodied, seamless Sangiovese deeply influenced by the Mediterranean climate of this warm site in the south of Montalcino. Layers of fruit build to an effortless, resonant finish laced with considerable aromatic nuance. This is another terrific showing from Giacomo Neri and his talented team.

Robert Parker

The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova shows thick body mass and volume. But it also appears to be on the distant outer edge of oxidation. There is a good amount of meat on these bones with dark fruit nuances, roasted almond, honey, chestnut and pressed roses. The more evolved side of the bouquet shows smoked bacon and dried bresaola. If you have a bottle, you might start bringing it up from your cellar.
