Note di degustazione
The 2013 Brunello Di Montalcino Renina was tasted at the winery along with several other older vintages. A rich ruby red color, it has a refined nose offering aromas of dried cherries, polished leather, menthol, and licorice. The palate is full of life, with wonderful energy and mouthwatering freshness, and it's starting become a more harmonious wine, with balanced ripeness to flesh it out. It's drinking very well now and still has a lot of nervous tension. Drink 2025-2035.

The 2013 Brunello Di Montalcino Rennina has a soft, floral perfume of crushed violets, graphitic earth, balsamic, and fresh black cherry. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied and reveals notes of ripe red plum, baked earth, fresh pine, sage, and toasted cedar. It has a heavier dose of oak than later vintages, as the estate has since moved away from this style, but it is a very attractive and polished wine. It was exciting to see the evolution of this estate through this tasting. Drink 2023-2039.
The 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Rennina is a dark, plush and succulent red wine with seamless overall integration. Angelo Gaja makes his wines with broad brush strokes that form shapes of perfect harmony and grandeur. He seems less interested in the minutiae, much in the same way an impressionist painter creates a portrait without consideration for the gritty details of reality. Continuing with my art metaphor, I'll venture to say that this is a big-picture wine that embraces bold fruit, oak spice, acidity and tannin in one overwhelming and warm embrace. I usually score the Sugarille a point or two higher, but this year the Rennina won my heart.
Deep ruby. Lots of oak and lively, concentrated cherry on the nose. Oak has quite a big impact but there is such a lot of fruit that it integrates. The finish has amazing length and muscular grip, but it could do with much less oak, because it plays up on the finish. (WS) (JR)
