Montevertine Le Pergole Torte 2014 IGT 1.5l

Montevertine Le Pergole Torte 2014 IGT 1.5l represents a window into the most authentic Tuscany: a wine that invites reflection on the time and care with which the vineyard is worked, from the first light of dawn to the cellar. Produced by the Montevertine winery, a family-run business rooted in the Tuscan landscape in the heart of Chianti, this wine embodies a farming philosophy that prioritizes attention to detail, patience, and sustainable craftsmanship. Founded by a family with deep ties to the land, the winery has built a well-defined identity over the years: respect for traditional viticulture, limited use of winemaking techniques, and a commitment to making wines that are an authentic expression of the terroir, rather than the product of spectacular technique. Le Pergole Torte, the flagship of the range, is born from the aging of grapes from old vines located in a particularly suitable location, where the temperature variations between day and night, combined with the warmth of the Tuscan soil, give the wine a unique texture. Montevertine's production philosophy is based on a firm commitment to method: spontaneous fermentation, controlled maceration, and lengthy maturation in previously used wooden barrels, with minimal intervention that allows the fruit's aromas to guide the development of complexity. The result is a wine of elegant density, with an intense ruby ​​color and garnet highlights. Its aromas evoke ripe cherry, plum, floral notes of violet, and spicy hints of black pepper and bitter cocoa. A subtle minerality recalls the clay and stony soil of Tuscany. Le Pergole Torte occupies the release slot in the lineup: a collectible wine that pairs with special vintages and calls for consistency both at the table and for moments of longevity, while also offering an elegant backdrop to accompany roast meats, game, aged cheeses, and a thoughtful appreciation of time. A visit to the cellar reveals how the balance between fruit, pepper, and minerality develops slowly, giving each sip a flavorful progression that lingers over time. For STELT, this bottle represents a benchmark of authenticity, discipline, and the ability to evolve, rooted in the territory and projected towards a horizon of lasting refinement.
