Casanova di Neri Tenuta Nuova Brunello 2008

A Brunello above all others, Tenuta Nuova is a phenom for good reason –the 2001 garnering Wine Spectator’s #1 top wine of 2006. Born of vineyards with unique characteristics that produce Sangiovese grapes and give a wine of great distinction and unique structure, potency and fineness. Captivating and complex in its fragrances, profound in its width yet able to express in delightful flavors, in the style of the estate. It lends itself to a lengthy evolution through the years but also drunk young it will give great satisfaction. Ever since its first harvest in 1993 it has had constant amazing recognition from the world press.
Ruby red with garnet reflections, hints of maraschino cherries, violets and red frits. Great fineness in the mouth with a tannin still young yet great quality. Long elegant and persistent. Serve at a temperature of 16° - 17° having opened the bottle a few hours previously or decant delicately.

Food Pairings

Seriously anything tomatoey sings with Sangiovese, pizza and pasta to be sure. Sausages, chicken, gazpacho. Bread salad.
