Information sur le domaine
Argiano est considéré comme un lieu ancien, riche en histoire, où les sages croyaient trouver l’Ara Jani, l’autel légendaire du dieu romain Janus. C’est au sommet d’une superbe colline, au sud-ouest de Montalcino, que fut construite pendant la Renaissance la magnifique Villa d’Argiano par les Peccis, une famille noble originaire de Sienne. Ayant appartenu à la famille Pecci pendant plusieurs décennies, la Villa est ensuite revenue aux comtes de Pieri, qui l’ont transmise au...

Mai 2024 (Millésime 2022)Complex aromas of blackcurrants, black licorice, violets, sandalwood and graphite. Medium-bodied with a solid core of fruit in the center palate and fine, chewy tannins that run the length of the wine. Crunchy and chewy.

James Suckling, Août 2020 (Millésime 2018)The ripe berries with delicate chocolate and hazelnut undertones are very attractive, as are the dusty tannins and herbal, berry and light tobacco undertones at the finish. Just a little more time will make it all the better. Try after 2021.

Décembre 2021 (Millésime 2019)Vibrant yet silky, boasting black cherry, blackberry, violet and iron flavors. The iron fist emerges by way of the firm tannins, and this finishes with a long aftertaste of fruit and dried herbs. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Sangiovese.

Octobre 2023 (Millésime 2021)Taut and linear in profile, this red delivers black currant, black cherry, vanilla and peppery spices. Tightens up on the finish, where the chalky tannins linger. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese.

Décembre 2023 (Millésime 2020)A fresh, spicy, peppery nose draws balance from undertones of earth and fruit. The palate turns juicier, without losing the earthiness of the nose, and expertly walks the line between a lush fullness and a linear edginess. It's balanced but never boring.

Juin 2021A bit reserved, with ample black cherry, black currant and spice flavors set within a solid structure. Fresh and focused, it lingers, echoing the fruit and adding an iron note. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Sangiovese.

Anthony Gismondi, Mars 2023 (Millésime 2021)Non-Confunditur, or “not to be confused or unique,” is on the Argiano family crest. In many ways, it describes the direction of winemaker Bernardino Sani, responsible for this Super Tuscan mix of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, and sangiovese. The fruit comes off younger 15 to 20 year old organically farmed vines leaving Sani to describe NC as a baby or junior Super Tuscan. The softness and roundness pull you into the glass, offering savoury wild notes of sage and violets mixed with juicy blueberry, black raspberry, with a stony mineral underside. Long, ripe, and sweet spiced, this wine overdelivers right now. The wine is fermented in stainless steel and aged in two and three year old oak. We loved this wine with a plate of grilled sausages and dry hard cheeses. Big value here.

Janvier 2022 (Millésime 2019)The zesty 2019 Non Confunditur wafts up with a darkly alluring yet also wonderfully fresh bouquet, as blackberries and currants give way to rubbed sage and crushed ashen stone. This is silky-smooth and soothing, casting a polished display of black and red berries across the palate, as mineral-driven tension forms toward the close. Sweet tannins create a sensation of youthful poise, yet they don't get in the way of the primary fruits that saturate throughout the long finish. Non Confunditur is refined in second and third-pass barriques and tonneaux, and it is composed primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon along with 20% Merlot and 10% Sangiovese.
