Note di degustazione
Bright, deep red. Higher-toned and more floral on the nose than the Rennina, showing pungent red cherry, marzipan, gingerbread and Asian spice aromas. Concentrated and penetrating in the mouth, boasting a more chiseled texture and more lift than the Rennina but still wonderfully ripe, dense and silky in the style of 2007. Finishes with very sweet, lush tannins and excellent structure and nerve for a graceful evolution in bottle.

The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino Sugarille is dazzling. Dark fruit, tar, licorice and smoke come to life in this dramatic, large-scaled Brunello. The 2007 boasts incredible intensity and power all the way through to the palate-staining finish. Today the tannins are big and imposing, but they should start settling down as the wine approaches its tenth birthday. I saw the wine shut down quickly in the glass, which is an excellent sign for its potential longevity. This is a flat-out gorgeous bottle of wine.

I tasted an amazing range of wines at Pieve Santa Restituta, including the 1996 and 1997 Brunello di Montalino Rennina, both of which have aged beautifully and show no signs of fading. Those wines were some of the first the Gaja family made in Montalcino, when they had far less experience than they do today. I have little doubt today’s wines are going to be even better. Pieve Santa Restituta sometimes gets lost in the Gaja lineup, but the estate’s best Brunelli are easily among the finest in the entire appellation.
