1999 Le Pergole Torte

Our bottle of the 1999 Le Pergole Torte was slightly off, and I put a question mark next to my score to reflect that fact. The bouquet is less precise and less focused overall. This is a relatively full-bodied expression of Sangiovese with aromas of dried rose petal and dark fruit followed by underbrush and wild porcino mushroom. The wine offers a solid and firm tannic backbone. Mar 2018, www.robertparker.com
