Gaja Pieve Santa Restituta Brunello di Montalcino 2017

Perched atop a steep hill in the Langhe sits the small village of Barbaresco, home of the Gaja winery. The story of the Gaja Winery can be traced to a singular, founding purpose: to produce original wines with a sense of place which reflects the tradition and culture of those who made it. This philosophy has inspired five generations of impeccable winemaking. 

The Brunello vineyards of Montalcino blanket the rolling hills surrounding the village and fan out at various elevations, creating the potential for Brunello wines to express different styles. The hillside vineyards produce wines more concentrated in red fruits and floral aromas; these sites reach up to over 1,600 feet and have shallow soils of rocks and shale.

This wine is a deep ruby colour and offers an expressive aroma of wildflowers, ripe cherry and balsamic notes. It's full-bodied with flavours of fresh plum and herbs, well-integrated wood and silky tannins.
