Le Pergole Torte 2021
Le Pergole Torte 2021 is one of the finest expressions of Sangiovese in Tuscany. Available on Collecto in 0.75L and rare 3L Double Magnum formats.
Nestled in Radda in Chianti, Montevertine has become a benchmark for pure Sangiovese lovers. Its flagship label, Le Pergole Torte, is now widely regarded as one of the most refined expressions of the Tuscan terroir—a true icon of Italian collectible wine. The 2021 vintage is available both in the traditional 0.75L bottle and in the rare and highly sought-after 3L Double Magnum format.
A record-breaking vintage: quality and top scores
Le Pergole Torte 2021 is made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes sourced from the estate’s historic vineyards, planted between 1968 and 1999. The wine is aged in two stages: one year in French oak barriques from Allier, and one year in large Slavonian oak casks. The result is a wine of elegance, depth, and complexity. Antonio Galloni awarded it a perfect 100/100 on Vinous, while xtraWine gave it 96/100—one of those rare instances where critics and market align in unanimous enthusiasm.
In recent years, the price of Pergole Torte bottles has shown steady growth, solidifying its reputation as one of the most reliable “Super Tuscan” labels from a collector’s standpoint. Production remains intentionally limited: only around 29,000 bottles per year—a remarkably small number for such a globally demanded wine.
The Double Magnum: prestige, longevity, and visual impact
The 3-liter Double Magnum format enhances the wine’s already extraordinary qualities. Slower aging, reduced oxygen exposure, and greater balance over time make this size ideal for collectors seeking longevity and optimal preservation. But it’s not just a technical choice: every Double Magnum carries symbolic and visual impact—perfect for special occasions and collectors in search of rare showpieces.
The 2021 vintage in this format received 95/100 from Robert Parker and 96/100 from James Suckling. In auction, older vintages in Double Magnum have reached prices over three times their original release. The 2021 already shows strong signals of appreciation, with growing interest from European, American, and Asian collectors alike.
Market data and performance
Le Pergole Torte has become one of the most sought-after names in Italian wine collecting. The 2021 vintage has already seen a surge in demand: the 0.75L bottle has climbed from around €140 to over €250 in just a few months, while the Double Magnum is regularly traded between €1,200 and €1,500, with higher peaks at major auctions. The 100/100 score from Antonio Galloni (Vinous) and the 96/100 from xtraWine for the bottle, together with 95/100 from Parker and 96/100 from James Suckling for the Double Magnum, confirm its collectability and prestige.
Why collect Le Pergole Torte
Le Pergole Torte is more than a wine—it’s a statement of stylistic and cultural integrity. The decision to leave the Chianti Classico consortium in the 1980s marked the beginning of a new era for 100% Sangiovese “Super Tuscans.” Today, owning a bottle of Le Pergole Torte means holding a piece of a 40-year journey, characterized by consistent craftsmanship, limited production, and global recognition. The Double Magnum format, in particular, is increasingly in demand among elite private collectors and top-tier wine cellars, thanks to its rarity, quality, and long-term aging potential.
Le Pergole Torte 2021—available both in the classic 0.75L bottle and the exclusive 3L Double Magnum—represents one of the finest expressions of Tuscan Sangiovese. The craftsmanship of Montevertine, combined with the label’s market performance and rising collector demand, makes this release one of the most compelling opportunities in contemporary Italian fine wine. On Collecto, you can secure your piece of this legacy—confident in its growing value and prestige over time.
