Brunello Di Montalcino 2014 Pieve Santa Restituta - Angelo Gaja 75cl / 14.5%

A bottle of 2014 Brunello Di Montalcino Pieve Santa Restituta from legendary Italian wine producer Angelo Gaja.

Brunello di Montalcino is produced in Tuscany in vineyards surrounding the town of Montalcino, in the province of Siena, located about 80 kilometres south of Florence.

'In 2012, Gaja blended all three of their top vineyards together to create a single punchy super Brunello cuvee. In 2014 they did the same again due to difficult weather conditions but with one massive difference being that this time, 80% to 90% of the final cuvee’s fruit came from just the two Cru vineyards of Rennina and Sugarille. Bright translucent colour, the 2014 Brunello mimics the delicious 2012 release. The result is a wonderfully fragrant, expressive aromatic nose showing tar, red cherry, Seville oranges, earthy aniseed root, violets, cherry blossom, tannery leather and sweet cedar oak vanilla spice complexity. Deliciously plump and full fruited, this wine is plush and opulent, fleshy, dense and super vibrant with an extra level of stony minerality. What a fabulous success for the vintage. Drink now to 2030+. 94/100' Greg Sherwood MW, Wine Safari
