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: 2012 Country: Italy Region: Tuscany Appellation: Toscana IGT Grape: Sangiovese Farming: Organic Drink: Now-2040

Spiced dark fruit, finesse and acid. Perfect with anything and good now but will get better.

2012 as expected tight as hell but the aromatics make it worth the splurge.

Naso austero, piccoli frutti e rose, sali da bagno e cuoio per un sorso che si stende tramite le sue durezze, severo e minerale
