Montevertine Le Pergole Torte 2009 is a masterful representation of 100% Sangiovese from one of Tuscany’s most esteemed private cellars. Rooted in a tradition of artisanal craftsmanship dating back to the 1970s, this wine exemplifies the rich heritage and unique terroir of the Chianti region—though since 1982, Montevertine wines have proudly been made independent of the Chianti Classico Consortium.

This vintage is renowned for its extraordinary balance and elegance. On the nose, it opens with vibrant aromas of red cherry and wild berries, layered delicately with subtle spice and earthy undertones. The palate reveals a refined structure where bright acidity meets silky tannins, culminating in a long, lingering finish that reflects the finesse and complexity that only meticulously cultivated Sangiovese grapes can offer.

The 2009 vintage stands out due to optimal climatic conditions in Tuscany that year, producing grapes with perfect ripeness and concentrated flavor profiles. This enhances the depth and intensity of the wine, making it a prized expression of Montevertine’s commitment to quality and authenticity.

Adding to its allure, each bottle features unique artwork depicting a beautiful lady, symbolizing the fusion of tradition and artistic expression that defines Montevertine. This label not only marks the wine’s identity but also its legacy as a collectible treasure.

Produced with exceptional care, Le Pergole Torte 2009 pairs elegantly with classic Italian dishes such as rich pasta, grilled meats, and aged cheeses, showcasing the versatility and sophistication of Tuscan Sangiovese. It is a distinguished choice for those who appreciate wines with depth, character, and historic significance.

Experience the timeless elegance and refined character of Montevertine Le Pergole Torte 2009, a true gem that captures the essence of Tuscany’s winemaking tradition.

Reviews

This vintage is very similar to the 2007 edition in terms of intensity, fullness and suppleness. The 2009 Le Pergole Torte shows velvety rich and dark extraction with softly intense aromas of black cherry, spice and grilled rosemary. There's a piquant touch of cheese rind or creamy white chocolate hidden deep somewhere at the back. All of these aromatic elements build in momentum and power to bring the wine a big notch forward in terms of complexity and personality. This is one of the most distinctive wines made in Tuscany, and those singular Montevertine attributes are proudly on display here.
This iconic 100% Sangiovese spends a year in Slavonian oak botte followed by an additional year in 1-year-old barriques. At 10 years old, the 2009 reveals the wild side of Sangiovese yet remains polished. It's a tangle of smoke, dried Mediterranean herbs, tobacco and pot pourri. Smooth and silky but sneaky tannins build and will continue to carry the wine...
