There's something about Pergole Torte's class and incisiveness that we find endlessly fascinating. Few wines are so nuanced and complicated.
The 2020 vintage is a deep and powerful one. The 2020 Pergole Torte dazzles with how it combines ripeness 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, spice, and floral notes.

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. This is especially true in bigger vintages, like 2020, where the wine is able to meld together grace and intensity to amazing effect.
The 2020 is a study in harmony and breeding. For all of its power in this vintage, it's the clarity of expression and balance that stand out. There's explosive complexity and incredible poise.
When it comes to Sangiovese, Pergole Torte stands alone for how deeply complex and elegant it is. 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 2020 Le Pergole Torte is a total stunner. Rich, sumptuous and layered, the 2020 possesses exceptional balance and class to burn. The 2020 is an opulent, racy and super-expressive wine with no hard edges and exceptional balance. Readers will find a super-classic Pergole Torte endowed with tremendous fruit purity. Dark-toned fruit, lavender, sage, graphite and spice build into a potent laced with a kiss of French oak and enough tannin to ensure fabulous development in the cellar."
