"Pieve Santa Restituta is Gaja’s estate in Montalcino, purchased in 1994. It is the family’s first expansion outside the Barbaresco and Barolo areas since its establishment in 1859.
On the nose, fresh fruit aromas prevail, with notes of cherry and small berries, followed by elegant hints of rose, geranium, and subtle cedar. On the palate, the wine is powerful, dense, and fresh, with generous, smooth tannins that provide a soft, sweet mouthfeel. It evolves with flavors of dried fruit and finishes with a savory, medium-long persistence.
The grapes from the different vineyards ferment and macerate separately for around three weeks. After 24 months of ageing in oak, the wines are blended and then aged for another six months in concrete vats." - WILSON DANIELS, IMPORTER
