title: Pieve Santa Restituta 2008 Sugarille  (Brunello di Montalcino)
description: Sugarille (by Angelo Gaja) is among the top-scoring wines in Montalcino but this edition is weighed down by biting acidity that is characteristic of the 2008 vintage. Modern aromas of black cherry, chocolate and tobacco deliver intensity and power. But the freshness feels sharp and raw at the back of the mouth. Give this wine a few more years to evolve.
variety: Sangiovese Grosso
designation: Sugarille
