Winemaker's Notes

The 2018 vintage best represents the Cerretalto work of art: deepness, intensity, and greatness. Once poured in the glass, it shows a bright ruby red color while the bouquet has unmistakable graphite followed by hints of young and dark red fruits, chocolate and licorice. On the palate, it is immense, thick and elegant at the same time with an incredible and persistent finish. Tannins are perfectly smoothed and integrated. The Cerretalto 2018 has a long life ahead. It should be opened at least 3 hours in advance at the recommended service temperature.

Critic Ratings

James Suckling Review - Rated 97:

Black cherries and dried cherries are allied with notes of balsamic, leather and minty earthiness, but it needs time to open up. Full-bodied on the palate with good fruit concentration and refined tannins. Still youthful, with grainy oak touches. Hints of graphite in the polished finish.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Review - Rated 96:
Showing dried blackberry, balsam herb, vapor rub and a hint of charred chili spice, this wine offers an aromatic profile that is very much in line with a vintage that saw cool spring temperatures and a hot summer. The Casanova di Neri 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto is a wine of depth, dusty tannins and a slightly evolved fruit character. I tasted this 2018 Cerretalto next to the estate's new releases from 2019, and the latter vintage certainly offers more overall clarity and crunch. The Neri family does great work with tannin management, and although there is some chalkiness here, the wine's structure is expertly folded into the fruit concentration.

Wine Spectator Review - Rated 95:

There's a firm underlying structure in this intense red, boosting its plum, cherry, eucalyptus and iron flavors, with a solid midpalate that builds to a lingering aftertaste of red fruit, hibiscus and mineral. Shows terrific length and freshness.
