Medium ruby ​​red. Opulent bouquet of small red fruits, notably redcurrant, a little herbaceous. Then on the palate, full and harmonious, with pleasant, fresh brightening and a lovely texture of cherry, forest floor and herbs. A stable framework of acidity and tannins leads to a persistent and long finish.
The Pieve Santa Restituta estate was acquired by the Gaja family in 1994. The “white,” rocky soils of this area, in the southwest subzone of the Brunello di Montalcino appellation, were abandoned long ago by the sharecropper mezzadri farmers. But while other crops struggled in the rugged, nutrient-poor terrain, it has proven ideal for the cultivation of grapes destined to become fine wine. The historic estate, named for the parish church (pieve in Italian) of Saint Restituta, covers 16 hectares and produces a classic blended Brunello di Montalcino and two vineyard-designated wines, Brunello di Montalcino Sugarille and Brunello di Montalcino Rennina. Brunello Di Montalcino from Gaja is an expressive, bold, and rich with notes of cherry, strawberry and earthy flavours and seamless tannins. It is a complex and refined wine that is great to drink right away or will develop and age well for up to another decade.

The 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Rennina is beautifully balanced and elegant. The wine is successfully streamlined and focused on the nuanced characteristics of the otherwise warm and sunny 2015 vintage. Rennina is often considered to be the more lithe and graceful of Gaja's two Brunellos (the other being Sugarille that is also reviewed here). The bouquet opens to pretty berry nuances, blue flower, lavender, grilled herb and powdery licorice. Despite the more delicate approach, Rennina delivers ample power in the mouth with fresh acidity and tight tannins. I'd suggest opening this bottle at the 10-year mark. Production is 11,000 bottles.

The Gaja family settled in Piedmont in the mid-seventeenth century. Five generations of Gaja’s have been producing wines in the Langhe hills since 1989, the year Giovanni Gaja, a local grape grower, founded the Gaja winery in Barbaresco.

Following years of dedication to uncompromising quality, the wines achieved a leadership position in Italy and the family was able to purchase vineyard holdings acquiring Sorì Tildìn, Costa Russi, Sorì San Lorenzo and Darmagi.

Angelo Gaja took over the family business in 1961 and combined his respect for the traditions of the Langhe with bold innovations in the vineyards and cellars which changed the way that wines were produced all over Italy.

Angelo lives in Barbaresco with his wife Lucia and their three children, Gaia, Rossana and Giovanni who represent the fifth generation of the family and are all involved in the business.

Today the winery owns 96 ha of vineyards in Barbaresco and Barolo. In 1994, the Gajas acquired their first estate in Tuscany, Pieve Santa Restituta in Montalcino. In 1996 the family purchased their second Tuscan property, Ca’ Marcanda in Bogheri.

Italiens ældste vinregion, Toscana, er måske ikke en sværvægter, når det gælder kvantitet, men som hjemsted for to af landets mest berømte fine vine - Chianti og Brunello di Montalcino - kan den bestemt måle sig med hensyn til kvalitet. Toscanas klima spænder fra middelhavsklima ved kysten til kontinentalt klima dybt inde i Apenninerne. Mere end to tredjedele af provinsen er dækket af bakker, hvilket er en vigtig terroirfaktor i de fine vine.

Brunello di Montalcino er en rødvin, der produceres i Toscana-regionen i Italien. Den er lavet af 100 % Sangiovese-druer, som dyrkes i bakkerne omkring byen Montalcino. Vinen er kendt for sin rige, komplekse smag og aroma samt sin evne til at lagre i mange år.

Brunello di Montalcinos historie går tilbage til det 14. århundrede, hvor Sangiovese-druen første gang blev plantet i regionen. Det var dog først i midten af det 19. århundrede, at vinen begyndte at blive anerkendt uden for lokalområdet. I 1888 blev den første Brunello di Montalcino tappet på flaske af Ferruccio Biondi-Santi, en lokal vinproducent, som krediteres for at have skabt vinens moderne stil.

I dag produceres Brunello di Montalcino af en række forskellige vingårde i regionen, hver med deres egen unikke stil og tilgang. Nogle af de mest kendte producenter er Biondi-Santi, Il Poggione og Banfi.

Produktionsprocessen for Brunello di Montalcino er meget reguleret med strenge regler for alt fra de anvendte druesorter til lagringsprocessen. Druerne skal høstes i hånden og gæres i tanke af rustfrit stål, før de lagres på egetræsfade i mindst to år. Efter denne første lagringsperiode lagres vinen på flaske i yderligere fire måneder, før den frigives til salg.

Den resulterende vin har en dyb rubinrød farve med aromaer af rød frugt, læder og tobak. I munden er den fyldig og kompleks med smag af kirsebær, blomme og krydderier. Tanninerne er faste og velstrukturerede, hvilket giver vinen en lang, dvælende finish.

Alt i alt er Brunello di Montalcino en vin, der er meget værdsat af både samlere og entusiaster. Dens rige historie, komplekse smag og evne til at lagre i mange år gør den til en sand perle i den italienske vinverden.
