Only Sergio Manetti could create Le Pergole Torte, because he was a unique, extraordinary, charismatic man, capable of transforming emotions into wine. In 1967, Manett, then a steel industrialist, bought the farm as a holiday home. The first wine produced was a Chianti Classico from 1971. Then, with the help and advice of his long-time friend Giulio Gambelli, the following year he started planting a Sangiovese vineyard of one and a half hectares. The name imposed on the plot was "Le Pergole Torte" and the production went on the market for the first time with the 1977 harvest as a table wine, because it was out of the Chianti Classico specification.
