Beschreibung: Der Pieve Santa Restituta Rennina Brunello di Montalcino DOCG ist aufgrund des etwas tiefgründigeren Bodens oft weicher und weniger tannninreich als Sugarille. Sehr saubere, opulente Sangiovese- Frucht nach Pflaume und roten Beerenaromen, die in delikat würzige und florale Noten übergehen. Rauchige Anklänge runden im Hintergrund das Duftbild ab. Eine hervorragende Dichte und Fülle auf dem Gaumen, gestützt von einer sehr gut proportionierten Säure und festem Tannin sind Garanten für eine lange Lagerungsperspektive. Kraftvoll – samtiger Geschmack mit einem saftigen, nachhaltigen Abgang. Passt perfekt zu gereiftem Käse und Wild.

Monica Larner für Robert Parker: „The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino Rennina is made from a blend of fruit from three different vineyard parcels. The sites total 25 hectares, with 15 located next to the church, or the Pieve, after which this estate is named. The sites have southwest exposures and different soil types. That flexibility explains the smooth and seamless bouquet offered by this wine. Compared to the single vineyard Sugarille expression, Rennina is more open and immediate. The wine presents fleshy and beautifully plump aromas of red cherry, dried blackberry and exotic spice with tobacco and chocolate at the back.“

Vinous: „The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino Rennina is strikingly beautiful. Rich, open-knit and alluring, the Rennina captures all the best qualities of the year. Sweet red cherry, plum, tobacco and spice notes are all supported by ripe, silky tannins that give the wine much of its sensual personality. The intensity of the year is very much in evidence, yet the Rennina also retains striking freshness. Historically, the Rennina has aged quite well, but it will be hard to resist, as it is already quite delicious.“

Wine Enthusiast: „Subtle aromas of sunbaked earth, toast, French oak and chopped herb slowly emerge in the glass. The aromas carry over to the round robust palate along with raspberry jam, dried black cherry, licorice and baking spice while velvety tannins lend finesse. You'll also detect the warmth of alcohol on the close.“

James Suckling: „A wonderfully polished, fruity red with cedar, berry and chocolate-powder aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, silky and delicious. Drink or hold.“

Jancis Robinson: „The new oak is more than obvious, if sleekly integrated with the fruit. Nebbiolo-like structure. Firm tannins and complex, orange peel and cherry fruit. Easily one of the best wines from this hot vintage.“
