2018 Argiano Brunello di Montalcino 0,75lt.
Fresh, complex, and fruity nose with balsamic and fleshy final notes. In the mouth it is very refined and elegant, with distinctive but silky and well-blended tannins and a marked flavour that makes it very gastronomic.

The 2018 vintage began with average winter temperatures, later in February/ March we
saw some frost and snow waves. Spring started with a fairly mild April, rainfall was
circumscribed, and in May we had substantial rainfall. After a warm and dry June, we had a drop in temperatures in mid-July with some scattered hailstorms that caused a delay in the phenological stages of the vines, and full veraison had to wait until the end of July. In the early days of September, a north wind ensured good cluster concentration and absence of serious secondary diseases, allowing the grapes to ripen well until harvest. The harvest period was characterized by good weather and mild temperatures.
Argiano embodies the history of the Montalcino region, standing as one of its most prestigious and traditional estates. With deep roots that connect it to its origins, Argiano combines traditional knowledge with a forward-looking vision. Today, guided by a passionate and expert team, we embrace a bold project rooted in identity, innovation and sustainability.
