2019 Gaja 'Pieve Santa Restituta' Brunello di Montalcino
97 Points - Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnock
A bright magenta/ruby color, the 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino is floral and expressive with aromas of wild roses, raspberry liqueur, blood orange, and fresh pine. Medium-bodied, it’s graceful throughout, with refined tannins, even, mouthwatering acidity, and a salty finish. It keeps you coming back for more and is going to benefit from at least another year in bottle.
94 Points - Stuart Knox, The Real Review
Medium ruby red hue. Black cherry, red earth and dried sage aromatics. Deep dark cherry fruit at its core, wrapped with dusty tannins and dried herbal savouries. As it flows, we see a cured pork undertone build that adds to its sense of complexity. Great length, tannins lift and drive right to the finish. Very approachable even at this age.
