«A sacred place, where a delicate balance is valued»
The Casanova di Neri winery is situated in front of Montalcino, set in a unique context of great beauty, perfectly integrated in this splendid landscape. The building is mostly underground, facing north and with a natural room temperature without having to resort to air conditioning. It was planned following a rational design that supports our production principles of low impact and natural processes. The structure is on three levels so as to take advantage of gravity and was built according to the needs of Casanova di Neri and of our vision of the productive process, intent on respecting the quality of the grapes and on enhancing the characteristics of the different grapes and above all of the different vineyards that they come from. Before the vinification the grapes are picked out on a selection belt after which they are de-stemmed and passed on to a further selection belt where we choose the best grapes that fall by gravity into the vats. The fermentation takes places in open conical stainless steel vats with controlled temperature and no pumps, which allows us to have a maximum regard for the quality of the grapes and enables the extraction of only the best tannins, preserving the colour and fragrance. This particular care and attention to quality is the least we can do after our meticulous work in the vineyards. This is followed by the aging in two ample barrel rooms on two different levels again using gravity to our advantage. After bottling, the wines are kept in the aging area in bottles until their shipment time. The richness and diversity of our vineyards is enhanced by the attentive care that is taken in the winery that crowns all the work that has gone into producing our wines. Our 63 hectares of vineyards are the core of our estate and our greatest riches from which extraordinary grapes are produced that are the secret of our wines. In all there are 7 vineyards: Fiesole, Poderuccio, Podernuovo, Le Cetine, Pietradonice, Cerretalto and Spereta, all of them in different parts of the territory of Montalcino. The diversity of their soils, exposures, microclimates and of the ages of the vines creates the identity of our wines. Wines produced by us are the consequence of how Sangiovese in Montalcino can give exceptional unrepeatable results, distinguished by a unique quality stemming from the combination of a territory that has always been dedicated to viticulture with the unstinting labour and infinite passion with which we confront it daily. Our grapes are the product of a variety of Sangiovese Grosso taken from our Cerretalto vineyard and from a long process of reproduction and planting of vineyards on the various slopes that give varying results that all spring originally from Sangiovese in Casanova di Neri.
