(Gaja Brunello di Montalcino Pieve Santa Restituta Rennina, Tuscany) As if Gaja’s status as the Crown Prince of Barbaresco weren’t enough, he has to do similarly majestic work in Tuscany’s most fabled region. It may be the tannins that set this wine apart—somehow, the notoriously gritty, aspirin-like tannins associated with the Sangiovese Grosso clone become silken here. The midpalate is comprised of powerful, dried sour cherries; green, sweet tobacco; and ripe saddle leather, but the mouthfeel makes this the ideal modern Brunello to drink while the more classic legends from the great 2001 vintage take their time softening up.

Terrific, with excellent concentration and a long finish. Notes of raspberry, bright blackberry and spice. Delicious and a keeper.

Aerated and then let it sit for 15 minutes in the glass. Wonderful!

Medium weight red, light rim, no tawny.
Smooth but expressive, deep ripe berries, soft florals, hint of cherry stone, some tar spice.
Silky, pure red and blue berries, plums, raspberry, sweet fruits, lightly dark spiced, gorgeous Sangiovese richness.

Dark cherry and earth on the nose; the palate still had good cherry fruit with resolved tannins and balanced acidity. The fruit was *slightly* dried out, but the pleasure was still there. My only real criticism--and this is coming from the perspective that it should have been the best wine in a tasting of "lesser" wines--the finish was kinda short.
