Rennina 2015

Pieve Santa Restituta (Gaja)

Case Format: 6x75cl

Gaja is one of the best-known wine producers in all of Italy based in Barbaresco, in northwest Italy.
Whilst Gaja is best known for having modernized Piedmont, introducing international grape varieties and winemaking practices more common in Bordeaux or California, traditional elements remain, including long macerations and the use of larger oak barrels.
Gaja’s move beyond Barbaresco started in 1988 with the acquisition of the Sperss vineyard in neighboring Barolo. In 1994, Gaja took over the 27 hectare Pieve Santa Restituta estate in Montalcino, followed by the 118 hectare Ca’ Marcanda estate in Bolgheri.

CRITIC REVIEWS

Walter Speller

Tasted blind. Deep ruby with bright orange tinges. Subdued, brooding, perfumed dark fruit with hints of pine. Eye-catching sweet-sour cherry fruit and juicy acidity with the tannins adding considerable muscle. Just a tiny bit drying on the finish at this stage. (WS)

Rennina hails from three of the Gaja estate’s original vineyards acquired in 1994. It is aromatically forward with black cherry fruit, sweet chewing tobacco, and sage. On the palate, it is generous and approachable upfront, with kirsch and vanilla, then follows through with amaro, a grippy structure, and a long finish. It is a detailed wine that will mature with grace, though it is pleasurable in its youth as well. Enjoy 2022-2035.
