- Pieve Santa Restituta's signature wine. Expressive Sangiovese whose cherry, plum and herbal characters conjure up the picture postcard Tuscan countryside. Brunello shows charming notes of juniper berries, liquorice, and sweet wood to greet your nose upon approaching this wine. It has a clear expression of sweet and ripe fruit, opening on the palate with spice notes and earthy aromatic herbs. This wine has remarkable texture, mouth-filling fruit, and a great length.
Grapes from the different vineyards are fermented and macerated separately for three weeks. They are then aged in oak for 24 months before being blended and aged for another six months in concrete vats.

| Winery | Nestled in the heart of Montalcino, Pieve Santa Restituta comprises 27 hectares of vines planted 350 metres above sea level, neighbouring Fossacolle and Case Basse. The estate was purchased by Angelo Gaja in 1994, marking his first foray into winemaking outside his native Langhe. It took Angelo a while to achieve the quality level he consistently achieves with his Piemontese wines, but today the Pieve Santa Restituta Brunello di Montalcino’s rank among the region's finest. As in the Langhe, Angelo has moved to a long post-fermentation maceration, around 30 days, and ageing in a mix of barrique and larger botti. Of the two single-vineyard wines, the ‘Sugarille’ epitomises the power and intensity that gives Brunello di Montalcino its enduring appeal. At the same time, the ‘Rennina’ is more elegant, restrained and, arguably, Piemontese. |
