Description

Gaja is a renowned producer of fine wines and spirits, and their Pieve Santa Restituta Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is no exception. This wine is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, which are carefully selected and hand-harvested from the estate's vineyards in Montalcino, Tuscany. The history of Gaja dates back to 1859, when Giovanni Gaja founded the winery in the Piedmont region of Italy. Over the years, the family has expanded their operations to include vineyards in Tuscany and even in Spain.

The production of Pieve Santa Restituta Brunello di Montalcino DOCG begins with the careful selection of grapes from the estate's vineyards. The grapes are then destemmed and crushed, and the resulting must is fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two years, followed by several months of bottle aging before release.

The resulting wine is a deep ruby red in color, with aromas of ripe red fruit, spice, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and complex, with flavors of cherry, plum, and tobacco, and a long, lingering finish. This wine is a perfect example of the quality and elegance that Gaja is known for, and it is sure to impress even the most discerning wine lover.

Overall, Gaja's Pieve Santa Restituta Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is a wine that truly embodies the history, style of production, and type of wines that this esteemed producer is known for. With its rich flavors and complex aromas, this wine is sure to be a hit with anyone who appreciates the finest things in life.

Tasting notes

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.
