Cherry and blackberry run through the Wine Spectator note, while James Suckling finds dark berries, spice and a velvety core. Bring a bottle to a pasta dinner or pour it beside grilled meat and aged Pecorino.

Wine Spectator · 92 points
Cherry and blackberry fruit define this linear, fluid red. A line of sinewy tannins leaves its mark on the earthy, salty finish. Fine length. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Best from 2027 through 2035.
James Suckling · 92 points
Toasted walnuts, ground spices and hints of chocolate, oranges and dark berries on the nose, leading to a firm and tense medium to full-bodied palate with fine tannins and a velvety core of dark fruit at the center. Lingering and structured. Drink or hold.

Irrosso di Casanova di Neri stands out once again for its unmistakable pleasantness and its prettiness and great drinkability. At the sight it is purplish ruby-red, intense and bright. On the nose there are spicy notes and intense small red fruits. On the palate its excellent tannic structure, enveloping and highly drinkable, is in harmony with its beautiful softness. 85% Sangiovese, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon.
James Suckling writes: Attractive notes of cherries, dried blood oranges, cocoa and hints of hibiscus and licorice. Bright and savory on the palate, with dusty tannins and lively acidity. Medium-bodied. It’s very pretty and refreshing, with savory nuances at the end. Drink now. - James Suckling 91
