Merchant's description

The Gaja family have owned the Pieve Santa Restituta estate since 1994 from which they produce two single-vineyard Brunello di Montalcino wines, Rennina and Sugarille. With the 2018 Rennina, one can immerse themselves in the evocative essence of Tuscany`s dusty terrain and aromatic, herbaceous notes. The palate is filled with flavours of cherry and violet, saturating it with their vibrant presence. Skilfully integrated oak merges with the wine`s long, chalky tannins. The finale leaves a delightful impression, combining tangy and sweet elements in seamless harmony.
