Rosso di Montalcino
2022
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...
Incomparable to the rest of this 10 years of Rosso di Montalcino flight. Raw, emotion-filled and aromatic of florals, wood spice and new fabric scents. Complexity abounds with an almost graphite-creosote-fresh tobacco trilogy, unresolved, staid and secure. Truth of the sensation is pure Argiano, chewy, leathery, rich and yet clear, transparent and open-knit. Should get really interesting in three to four years.

A really balanced red with aromas and flavors of cherries, lemon rind and hints of cedar. It’s medium-bodied. Firm and racy on the finish. A beauty.

A jeweled red/ruby color, the 2021 Rosso Di Montalcino needs air, opening with a bit of elevated volatile aromas before revealing notes of cherry candies, pressed roses, and licorice.

A graceful wine focused on sweet cinnamon, red fruit and licorice. Light-bodied, on the palate, it shows vivid chalky tannins, a grainy finish and crisp acidity. To be matched with food. From organically grown grapes.

Translucent ruby in color, the 2023 Rosso Di Montalcino is pretty and inviting with a floral bouquet that offers notes of crushed strawberries, roses, and sweet herbs. Medium-bodied, the palate is elegant but also has a light gamey richness underneath, with ripe tannins, a chalky (almost liver-like texture), and a clean finish. The acidity is more modest in this charming, easygoing wine.

Woodland herbs and berries come together with sweet smoke and hints of shaved cedar as the 2021 Rosso di Montalcino blossoms in the glass. This soothes with its soft textures and mineral-tinged wild berry fruits, all guided by juicy acidity. A tart tinge lingers through the finish as the 2021 tapers off spicy, long yet remarkably fresh.

Masses of crushed cherries, ashen stone and grilled herbs make the 2020 Rosso di Montalcino impossible to ignore. This is a silky and pliant effort with a pleasant inner sweetness and pretty strawberry fruits. The 2020 lingers with a slight herbal tinge and a tart twang of wild berries, yet the endnote is freshness. There's so much energy here.

The 2019 Rosso di Montalcino boasts an herbal-tinged black cherry and balsamic spiced bouquet. Rich, dark textural waves of woodland berries and minerals wash across the palate, leaving a coating of grippy young tannin in their wake, along with a sizzling of residual acids. While quite tense, this leaves the mouth watering for more, finishing with a persistent flourish of red fruit and minerals.
