When it comes to Sangiovese, Pergole Torte stands alone for how deeply complex and elegant it is.
Today, I'm happy to offer the epic 2021 Pergole Torte.

Montevertine is in Radda, one of the coolest, highest-altitude spots in the Chianti Classico zone. It is here, and in Montevertine's hands, that Sangiovese reaches an unparalleled level of nobility.
The 2021s at Montevertine are extreme. They are jam-packed, and grandly scaled. It's dazzling how they combine richness and concentration with drive, purity, and lift. As always, it offers up a beguiling set of aromatics with incredibly expressive notes of red fruits, herbs, spices, and floral notes.
The 2021 Pergole Torte has nearly everything that you could want. It has power, verve, and plenty of finese. It's a vintage of the wine that shouldn't be missed.
As Antonio Galloni writes, "Le Pergole Torte isn’t a great Tuscan or Italian wine. It is simply one of the world’s elite wines." I'm very happy to offer this thrilling Pergole Torte.

Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media: "The 2021 Le Pergole Torte is a real stunner. Rich deep and beautifully layered in the glass the 2021 is captivating from the very first taste. In bottle this is quite a bit more reticent than it was as a barrel sample which in my view is a positive. Even so readers should be prepared to cellar the 2021 for a number of years at a minimum."
