James Suckling - 94 Points
Rich and stylish for the vintage with dried fruits and tar. Full body, chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. This is very intense and structured wine for the vintage. Impressive. Like the 1999. Drink or hold. (2/2014)
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 94 Points
The 2008 Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto comes from a more challenging vintage for Casanova di Neri with a cooler growing season and more moisture. In fact, the mouthfeel here is noticeably thinner compared to the stunning wines made from this vineyard in 2007 and 2006. Cerretalto is so immensely soft and luscious it is almost too much of a good thing. Rich spice, cherry, chocolate and crushed granite wrap thickly around the palate. (2/2014)
