Casanova Di Neri

Bright red colour accompanies strawberry, sour cherry and other red berries. The palate is graceful and balanced, with young tannins, acidity and silkiness. Sangiovese comes mainly from a Sesta-area vineyard with vines nearly fifty years old. Grapes are harvested by hand in September, fermented spontaneously without added yeast and macerated for eighteen days in temperature-controlled oak vats. Maturation lasts fifteen months in tonneaux.

This Sangiovese is selected manually, then passes through an optical selector after destemming. Fermentation is spontaneous, without added yeasts, in temperature-controlled conical steel vats. Maceration lasts twenty-five days. Oak maturation lasts forty-three months, followed by six months in bottle. Small red fruits, spice and chocolate accompany ripe tannins and bright acidity. The colour is a youthful ruby red. Harvest took place in the first week of October.
