Montevertine Le Pergole Torte Sangiovese 2009

$425

The prestige wine of Montevertine is only produced in outstanding vintages. This ultimate wine is aged in large Slavonian oak barrels for 18 months and then racked into small French oak (Allier) barrels for the final six month stage of its elevage. Since 1990, Le Pergole Torte has comprised the estate’s best parcels— Le Pergole Torte, rounded out by 35-year-old vines in Montevertine and 20-year-old vines in il Sodaccio—but it is first and foremost a nakedly mineral, staggeringly complex expression of pure Sangiovese grown in Radda’s high-altitude alberese soils. Vintage: 2009 Country: Italy Region: Tuscany Appellation: Toscana IGT Grape: Sangiovese Farming: Organic Drink: Now-2040

Incredible. Complexity layers out in the finish seemingly forever. Very good indeed.

Always one of the most texturally sexy wines. No exception here. Opens up nicely but I'm definitely hanging on to a few for down the road.

A little soft for my tastes but excellent nonetheless. Missing some acidity.
