MONTEVERTINE
Le Pergole Torte - Aqua Vitae Riserva
Le Pergole Torte - Aqua Vitae Riserva, comes in a unique bottle with a special label. Aqua Vitae is the result of a close collaboration between the craft distillery Gioacchino Nannoni, responsible for the entire distillation, aging, and bottling process, and the prestigious vineyard Montevertine as the supplier of top-quality raw materials. The term "Grappa" doesn't quite capture the essence of this product, given its remarkable attributes like its amber hue and the velvety sensations it offers on the palate and in the nose. Tasting Aqua Vitae brings to mind other fine spirits, such as Armagnac.

Description
Montevertine vineyards exclusively cultivate traditional Chianti grape varieties: Sangiovese, Canaiolo, and Colorino. The vinification method adheres to a deeply traditional approach that has remained consistent since the first harvest. Handpicked grapes are fermented in glass-lined concrete tanks without temperature control, with twice-daily punch-downs to keep the cap moist and ensure a slow extraction of tannins from the skins. After fermentation, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in the same tanks, and subsequently matures for about two years in wooden casks. Aging occurs in Slavonian and Allier oak barrels. The wines remain unfiltered, and the bottling process is gravity-fed.

Grape variety: 100% Sangiovese
