Montevertine Le Pergole Torte 2009 3L
The Winery
Monte Vertine
At Montevertine, simplicity, respect, extreme care about details, and know-how are the guiding principles that inspire their daily work. Their winemaking method is extremely traditional and always the same, since their very first harvests. The hand-picked grapes are fermented in vitrified concrete vats, without temperature control, and by performing two pumping-over operations per day to keep the cap of skins moist for a gentler extraction of tannins from the skins.
Summary
Montevertine Le Pergole Torte 2009 is a distinguished 100% Sangiovese from Radda in Chianti, renowned for its elegance and complexity. This wine is crafted from high-altitude galestro and alberese soils, aged for about 24 months in a combination of Allier barriques and Slavonian casks. The 2009 vintage showcases a captivating profile with layers of sweet red cherries, aromatic herbs, spices, and a hint of mint, wrapped in a silky finish. The wine exhibits a polished texture with subtle tannins, reflecting its iconic heritage and the influence of biological farming practices. This benchmark Super-Tuscan is poised for further aging and continues to evolve beautifully.
