Le Pergole Torte Sangiovese

Elegant. Polished with red fruit, iron, grilled meats. From magnum.

Floral nose; earth and leather dark blackberry and cassis fruits in the body. Showing beautifully and evolves in the glass.

LPT showing STRONG! Love this wine.

Always one of my favorite Supertuscan... Good vintage too

100% Sangiovese. Acid for days, dried fruit on the nose with herbs and tobacco. Yum. Happy we opened this ine

The shit. Decanter over an hour. So young with tobacco, with black cherry, blackberry and licorice. Great juice.

Italy here I come! Really needed a profound Sangiovese to move me. And this bottle did. With goose and terroni. Luckily they had an 06. Perfect vintage in perfect condition. The elegant side of Italy but with all that rustic goodness.

Medium ruby , quite wide but healthy rim. Lovely dried red fruits , cranberry , raspberry , touches of dried herbs . Quite mineral and serious also after a while . On the palate , more red fruits, touch of black tea , dried Provençal herbs , really vibrant acidity , quite ripe but fine and noticeable tannins . Very good length with a refreshing vibrant finish . This is drinking well now , especially with time in the glass , will probably still improve over the next 5 or so years and hold for a further 5-10.

Cherries on cherries. Sweet & tart. A baby still.

Tuscany 2006 Italian dinner, striking Sangiovese, held its own with the Brunellos. Brooding, stone, cherry, dark wood.
