A beautifully mature 'mini Super Tuscan', ready to enjoy today
Crafted organically and biodynamically by the acclaimed Caiarossa estate
Outstanding value from one of Tuscany's most respected producers

Why it's one of our favourites
Some wines prove that you don't need to spend a fortune to experience the appeal of a great Super Tuscan. Pergolaia has long been our favourite 'mini Super Tuscan', combining Sangiovese with classic Bordeaux varieties to create a wine of remarkable balance, depth and elegance. After a decade of bottle age, the 2014 has developed beautifully, offering layers of dark fruit, spice, leather and tobacco while retaining the freshness that makes it such a pleasure to drink today.

We often describe Pergolaia as our 'mini Super Tuscan'. Crafted by the acclaimed Caiarossa estate using the same philosophy as their flagship wines, it delivers the character and quality that make the category so sought-after, but at a much more approachable price.

From Esme Johnstone
"Pergolaia has long been one of our favourite Super Tuscans because it offers exceptional quality without the price tag often associated with the category. After a decade of careful ageing, the 2014 is beautifully mature and drinking exactly as we'd hoped. It's a wine to enjoy now, while also rewarding those who choose to keep a few bottles back."

How does the wine taste? Customer Reviews (1)

Wonderfully mature and expressive, with aromas of dark cherries, tobacco, leather and sweet spice. The palate is smooth and refined, combining rich berry fruit with notes of truffle, cedar and earthy complexity. Silky tannins and fresh acidity lead to a long, elegant finish that reflects the benefits of a decade of bottle age.

This wine is a delight. Aged beautifully with good brambly nose and summer pudding fruits remain on the tongue as it slips down a treat. However, do not linger too long over the bottle, share it and drink within an hour or so or it fades. Previous vintage

Richard - July 2022

"A 10-year-old 'super-Tuscan', the vineyard here is run organically and biodymanically. The blend is Sangiovese with the Bordeaux trio of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. It is aged in older 500-litre barrels for a year before 10 months in concrete and large wooden vats. It's great that FromVineyardsDirect offers these mature wines at reasonable prices - two years ago they had an 18-year-old version of this same cuvée that was superb. This is no slouch either. Aromas are delightfully Bordeaux-like, with some pencil-shaving and graphite over black fruits and a gamy nuance, the Sangiovese perhaps adding a little brighter cherry. In the mouth it is medium-bodied, has good fruit, and tertiary development with a little spice and grainy tannin adding grip and elegant acidity. This is drinking well now. "

"Here's a stunning "super-Tuscan" from an estate with pedigree. Full of character, it has a soft medium-bodied texture, with mature notes of cherry, leather and spice."

The Sunday Times, 04/12/2022 Previous vintage

"I was convinced that the 2003 Pergolaia second wine of Super Tuscan Caiarossa would be over the hill. Its reddish brown hue and slightly dumb nose suggested as much but, gosh, one sip and I was smitten. The Sangiovese/Cabernet Franc/Merlot fruit has more than held up and its gloriously, defiantly rich, soft and mellow with concentrated cherry/strawberry flavours, leather, vanilla and spice."
