Montevertine, a legendary estate renowned for its unwavering commitment to Sangiovese and biodynamic practices, presents the 2021 Le Pergole Torte. This iconic wine, consistently lauded by critics, hails from high-altitude vineyards with predominantly limestone soils. It unveils an ethereal nose of fragrant violet, wild cherry, and subtle earthy undertones. The palate is graceful yet intense, with layers of pure red fruit, elegant tannins, and vibrant acidity leading to a remarkably long and complex finish. Pair this benchmark Sangiovese with roasted Tuscan meats, game dishes, or aged cheeses.

Critic Reviews
Antonio Galloni
98+ Points
98+ Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "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." 06/24
Wine Advocate
97 Points
97 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Beautifully saturated and rich in terms of complexity (but not in extraction), the Montevertine 2021 Le Pergole Torte remains focused and elegantly streamlined with a very bright-red cherry element that defines this classic vintage. There are tart fruit flavors to close, followed by firm but silky tannins. A hint of the skins also comes through on the bouquet and adds a little more weight and substance. This wine (which is worked in cement vats, oak cask and Allier barrique) finishes with polished slate-like mineral nuances. This is a 29,000-bottle release." 07/24

99 Points, James Suckling: "Black cherry, black truffle and bark. Fresh earth and pine cone. It’s medium-bodied with extremely integrated tannins that are so vivid and so pure, like essence of Sangiovese. Strength with balance. Best in three to four years..." 07/24
