2006 Casanova di Neri Cerretalto – Power and Precision from Brunello di Montalcino
The 2006 Casanova di Neri Cerretalto stands among the most iconic expressions of Brunello di Montalcino, showcasing the estate’s ability to unite intensity, structure, and refinement. Produced only in exceptional years, Cerretalto represents the pinnacle of Casanova di Neri’s single-vineyard bottlings and is revered for its depth and longevity.
Tasting Notes
The wine opens with concentrated aromas of black cherry, dried plum, tobacco, and dark spice, layered with earthy undertones. On the palate, it is powerful yet controlled, delivering dense fruit framed by firm, polished tannins. Notes of licorice, leather, and mineral persist through a long, commanding finish, reflecting both the vineyard’s character and the strength of the 2006 vintage.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Produced from 100 percent Sangiovese grown in the Cerretalto vineyard, the wine benefits from alluvial soils rich in stones and clay that enhance structure and complexity. Fermentation is followed by extended aging in oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop depth while preserving freshness. The warm, consistent 2006 growing season contributed to exceptional concentration and balance.
Investment & Collectibility
Cerretalto is widely regarded as one of Italy’s most collectible wines, with the 2006 vintage frequently cited as a benchmark. Its limited production, critical acclaim, and proven aging trajectory ensure continued demand among collectors and fine wine investors.
Vintage Insights & Accolades
