Rosso di Montalcino DOP Pieve Santa Restituta 0.75L

Pieve Santa Restituta is primarily known in Montalcino as a Brunello producer — the winery has belonged to the Gaja family since 1994 and cultivates some of the best vineyards around the town. The 2024 Rosso di Montalcino is the estate's first vintage of this appellation: a clear indication of their intention to fully exploit the terroir's potential.

In the glass, this is a medium-bodied, dry Sangiovese with the typical profile of the appellation: sour cherry, dried herbs, a hint of tobacco, and the characteristic iron minerality inherent in the soils around Montalcino. The tannins are present but fine-grained, and the acidity is fresh and well-integrated. The finish is long and spicy.

Rosso di Montalcino pairs beautifully with classic Tuscan cuisine: Bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild boar salami, mature Pecorino cheese, or pasta with wild boar ragù. Serving temperature: 16–18 °C. Ready to drink now, but will easily keep until 2028.
