Description
 
A romantic medieval Tuscan town, Montalcino is surrounded by hills and dense woods. The soil, altitude and lush topography make Montalcino the ideal home for the Sangiovese grape and the celebrated wine of the area, Brunello di Montalcino. There are parallels between the Tuscan Sangiovese and the Piedmontese Nebbiolo. For more than 150 years, these two indigenous grape varieties have produced Italy’s most distinctive wines, known for their uniqueness, their history and their prestige. The parish church, or pieve, of Santa Restituta stands on the property and gives the estate its name. Wine has been made here since the 12th century. Pieve S. Restituta produces three Brunello di Montalcino wines: Brunello di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino Sugarille and Brunello di Montalcino Rennina.

The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino Rennina is gorgeous in this vintage. Medium in body, the wine offers up attractive scents of underbrush, red cherries, tobacco, leather and licorice, all of which are framed by silky, ripe tannins. The wine reveals tons of purity and class in an understated style. As is often the case, the Rennina is the more feminine of the estate’s Brunellos. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2022. WA93
