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...

Notes de dégustation

Vin arborant une couleur rouge cerise de bonne intensité. Nez assez puissant qui s'ouvre sur des notes d'anis, de cuir et de tabac. Laissez-vous charmer par ce rouge possédant une bonne vivacité et pourvu de tannins enrobés. Fidèle aux parfums perçus à l'olfaction, il s'affirme par des flaveurs de réglisse. Il a une texture ample qui se termine dans une finale assez persistante.

Septembre 2020

What's often forgotten in the general hubbub which surrounds Brunello di Montalcino is that this DOCG circumscribes the area of Tuscany where Sangiovese ripens more amply and more beguilingly than anywhere else - though of course this is a grape variety whose resource is such that differences of ripening spectrum based on site do nothing but add to its nuance and appeal. If you want to get a fix on the sheer, disarming loveliness of that ample ripeness, try this wine: glowing, almost exotic fruits, with a little incense spice creeping into the mix, then glowing, soft-textured flavours which brim with summer's end and autumn's plenty: ripe plums and berries, autumn leaves, some wild mushroom fragrance and the dark spices which hint at Christmas to come.

James Suckling, Décembre 2020 (Millésime 2016)

A very polished red with cloves and caramel, on top of black cherries, mushrooms and forest floor. Black olives, too. It's full-bodied with polished tannins and lovely depth all the way through. Lightly chewy. Juicy black-cherries and savory black-olive character. Complex. Drink after 2025.

Mai 2021

This fragrant red opens with heady scents of blue flower, star anise, camphor and new leather. Still young and primary, it delivers juicy red cherry, spiced cranberry, licorice and tobacco supported by a backbone of refined tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it energized and balanced...

Novembre 2019 (Millésime 2015)

Very floral on the nose with plums, rose petals and freshly sliced porcini mushrooms. The palate is tight and compressed with beautiful ripe fruit, wet earth and cool, stone flavors. A structured and impressive wine.

Anthony Gismondi, Août 2020

Argiano Brunello is made with 100 per cent Sangiovese grown on ancient clay with a high-level of limestone at 280 to 310 meters. The vines range from 12 to 60 years old are organically farmed at very low yields. The vintage is a superstar and one to invest in for the long term. The ferment is all stainless steel, but the malolactic take place in concrete followed 30 months of aging in Slavonian oak barrels of varying capacity (10/15/30/50 Hl). The work of Antonini is felt here even at 14.16 per cent alcohol, where the balance and elegance of this Brunello waft through its powerful structure with ease. In 2015 the nose is a symphony of ripe red fruits, think plums or cherries, perfect spicing and a big dollop of deliciousness. It is the real thing and will be for decades.

Anthony Gismondi, Octobre 2021

We will be talking about the 2015 and the 2016 Brunello vintages for decades, and the wines will only improve as we do, so jump in if you want some real gems for the cellar. To simplify the comparison, there is more fruit in 2015 and more structure and tannin in 2016; both are great years. Argiano opens with fragrant violet overtones with cedar, leather, anise, and wild fruit. A riot of flavour continues on the palate. Fresh, and more importantly, alive and vibrant, this is a winner with a long future. So put on your seat belt and get ready for the ride. It begs some pici and mushrooms, a local favourite pasta in Montalcino.

Eric Guido, Novembre 2020 (Millésime 2016)

The 2016 Argiano Brunello di Montalcino shows sweet herbs and tobacco with hints of mocha and cedar spice box. It’s silky in texture, coasting across a medium-bodied frame while giving way to tart red berries, with grippy tannins mounting toward the close. A cooling wave of minty herbs and licorice adds much needed freshness, bringing the 2016 into balance throughout the youthfully structured finale. While this was hard to read and quite backward upon opening, it blossomed beautifully in the glass over time.

Novembre 2022 (Millésime 2018)

A bright and fresh 2018 with cherry and floral aromas and flavors. Medium body, refined tannins and a linear finish with bright acidity. Tangy and energetic. Tight at the end. A year or two will open it, but already a beauty.

Avril 2022 (Millésime 2017)

Siena native Bernardino Sani began his wine career with a cellar internship at Argiano in 2002, and returned some ten years later, taking over as CEO in 2014. He has overseen a conversion to organic viticulture and an expansion of the cellar, with a shift toward use of larger Slavonian oak casks for the aging of the Brunellos. The benefits of these changes are apparent in this Brunello which, despite the warm and dry 2017 vintage, offers scents of rose petal and violet that are precise and lifted, with a cool mineral tone that energizes its vivid red and black cherry flavors layered with notes of licorice and tarragon. The wine gains energy over several days while maintaining that firm minerality that makes this wine so appealing.

Novembre 2023 (Millésime 2019)

Crushed ashen stones, cloves, dried black cherries, rosemary and balsam herbs create a spice box display as the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino blossoms in the glass. This is surprisingly fresh and energetic, nearly juicy in character, yet refined and focused, with silken textures ushering in crisp wild berry fruits and orange tones that slowly saturate the palate. It finishes spicy and long, yet its energy never wavers, with grippy tannins that tug at the cheeks as licorice and cranberry notes fade.

Février 2024 (Millésime 2019)

Taking a dark ruby hue, the 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino offers a warming bouquet of black raspberry, licorice candies, polished leather, and sappy forest herbs. Rounded and approachable, it’s medium to full-bodied, with sweet tannins and balanced acidity, ripe concentration throughout, and a long finish with a note of bergamot. This is a beautifully styled wine from the Argiano team, who continue to impress.

BS, Juin 2021 (Millésime 2016)

The supple texture and medium-body easily support the ripe cherry, raspberry and plum fruit, while earth, leather and tobacco add grace notes. Very harmonious, even at this stage, this red is bright and long, with a fruity and savory aftertaste. Best from 2023 through 2042.

Novembre 2021 (Millésime 2017)

As one would expect the Argiano comes streaming with magnificent fruit on the heels of a string of recent vintages inclusive and in many ways culminating at their near perfect 2016s. What has been learned and essential changes that have been made have led to making this effortless ’17, relatively speaking but heat being little matter when acumen runs this high. Bernardino Sani has found the sweet spot, a place where optimum fruit ripeness can linger and develop all the necessary accoutrements to acquiesce at a positively proper meeting point. The length on this classic ’17 is outstanding with thanks to the work put in.

Janvier 2022 (Millésime 2017)

Scents of crushed mint, woodland berries and new leather come to the forefront along with a whiff of violet. The full-bodied palate features cherry marinated in spirits, licorice and a hint of coffee bean alongside firm, refined tannins.
