What the experts say...

"Gaiole in Chianti. Lacklustre mid ruby. Sweet, lively nose. Cool raspberry fruit on the palate with energetic acidity and bags of powdery tannins. Burgundian in style. Needs another year to fully open up, but already very pretty. Walter Speller pour Jancis Robinson, mars 2016)

Information about domain San Giusto A Rentennano

The estate can trace its history back to the mediaeval era, as it was fortified by the Florentines in 1204. It still bears the traces of these fortifications, notably in the ageing cellar. San Giusto a Retennano passed into the hands of the Martini di Cigala family by marriage in 1914. Today, it is managed by their descendants and their partners – Anna, Lucia, Elisabetta, Francesco, Alessandro and Luca. They have all played their part in achieving organic certification for the domaine.
