Produced from estate vineyards surrounding the historic Pieve Santa Restituta property in Montalcino, the wine is crafted entirely from Sangiovese and reflects Angelo Gaja's philosophy of combining traditional Brunello character with meticulous vineyard management and precision winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2018 vintage is noted for its elegance, freshness, and classical structure. Aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, dried rose petals, orange peel, tobacco, Mediterranean herbs, and sweet spice emerge from the glass with remarkable clarity. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, combining vibrant red fruit with finely integrated tannins and bright acidity. Layers of raspberry, sour cherry, cedar, earthy nuances, and crushed stone unfold gradually, creating a wine that emphasises finesse and balance over sheer power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExtended maturation in oak and bottle has enhanced complexity while preserving the purity of fruit and the distinctive character of Montalcino's terroir. The finish is long, savoury, and mineral-driven, marked by notes of dried flowers, spice, and lingering red fruits. Elegant and age-worthy, the 2018 vintage showcases a more refined and transparent expression of Brunello, with the structure to develop beautifully over the next 15 to 20 years. In magnum format, the wine will mature even more slowly, offering exceptional longevity and cellar potential.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pieve Santa Restituta","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":45322138615917,"sku":"FRAPSANTABRUNELLO15018","price":640.34,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1421\/5622\/files\/weibelweine_brunello_pievesantarestituta_150cl.jpg?v=1781102007","url":"https:\/\/worldwine.com.au\/products\/pieve-santa-restituta-brunello-di-montalcino-1-5l-2018","provider":"World Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
