Mostly Nerello Mascalese with a splash of Nerello Cappuccio, Ruby red color with aromas of ripe berry fruits, spice and sweet notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, blackberry and plum with herbs, caramel and hints of citrus rind. Medium+ finish, fine tannins ending with fruit, spice and sweet nutty earthy notes. Nice. — 17 days ago

2016 vintage. This ain't Welcome to Plushytown. Decanted and crushed...er...enjoyed over the course of 30 mins. Obviously 25 years too early. Pretty complex nose already. Medium body. Entry and exit palate very lean and mean but middle palate is where the richness and fruit are bottled up. Will be interesting to see how that middle palate experience expands in coming years. Tremendous concentration. This wine is generally worth the commotion, pursuit and effort. 9.7.23. — 3 months ago
This vintage of Pieve Santa Restituta is delicious. To be more specific: the best word to describe it is the English "smooth". The Polish "smooth" does not reflect the nuances. 🙂 Tannins pleasantly tighten the tongue. The acidity is perfect for me. Fleeting fruitiness on the nose, but none on the palate. Back to the nose: spices and herbs, especially thyme, some tobacco. I love the dryness of this wine. — 23 days ago
Great wine this. Minerally with subtle and integrated oak. Fruits come later with that classic chardonnay banana note. Yes this will get better with age but there is already so much to enjoy. Went well with salad on a warm indian summer evening night — 2 months ago

Bright and lively. Fruit is bursting through. Not a very complex wine but it’s very reliable and a perfect accompaniment to sautéd red snapper and seafood risotto. — 5 days ago
