I was quite happy with this super duper Tuscan. Quite, as it aged with grace and sophistication.
Pergolaia is harvested by hand in September from their Podere Serra all’olio and Podere Nocolino vineyards. Big, bombastic and mature flavors of plum, cherry, leather and cedar really shine in this smooth blend of mostly Sangiovese (with a small percentage of Cab Franc, Cab Sauv and Merlot. Elegant and well balanced drinking in every way, I'd say.

Vintage 2006, lots of character in this wine from merlot, very true to type, nice red fruits in the smell, a bit stubborn after opening but gains roundness and friendliness after a few hours aeration. Gives pleasure. Very sound wine. — 9 years ago

My favourite Cotes De Bourg wine in a top vintage @ £60 😁 will keep improving 👍 If you’ve never tried this tiny region of Bordeaux you should check it out as there are some great value bottles here; this being one of the more expensive as made by the folks behind Tertre Roteboeuf 😎

Very pure nose. A slightly sour note. Bright raspberrys and clear red fruit on the palate. Lean and taut. A lot of tension. Slightly clipped finish. I think needs air and time. — 9 years ago
