Brunello di Montalcino Brunello di Montalcino DOP

A Brunello that puts structure and spice at the center: Sangiovese Grosso from Montalcino, densely woven and clearly defined.

Pieve Santa Restituta belongs to the Gaja family, which cultivates several vineyards in Montalcino. The grapes of the 2021 vintage come partly from Rennina and Sugarille as well as from Torrenieri, where clay, tuff, and sand characterize the origin. The wine matures for 24 months in wood and another six months in concrete tanks.

In the glass, it shows an intense ruby red. In the nose, flint, nutmeg, and bergamot mix with rosehip, cherry, wild berry, and plum, along with violets, licorice, and earthy nuances. On the palate, it feels dry, medium-bodied to full, spicy, and precise, with ripe tannin and clear fruit. The finish is long and characterized by plum.

Recommendation: Serve it at 16 to 18 °C with pappardelle with wild boar ragù, braised beef, or aged pecorino. A carafe gives it air beforehand.
