Argentiera

Argentieras Rosato is generous in its aromas of fruit and soft on the palate. Impeccable and flawless. A rosé for high demands. SUPERIORE.DE

Fresh and juicy the Poggio ai Ginepri in its white version made from Vermentino, Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc. Fruit bouquet of light fruit and flowers, round and wonderfully balanced on the palate with a pleasant acid wire. SUPERIORE.DE

Attractive bouquet with the typical aromas of a Cabernet-Syrah-Merlot blend such as cedar wood, leather and dark fruit. Powerful and densely woven body, perfectly balanced in acidity and tannin structure with a beautiful finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Rich, deep, dark ruby. Dense and memorable nose, lots of currant. Builds up pleasant pressure on the palate. Ripe, dark berries and a smooth and dense tannin lead to a long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark shining garnet. Noble, dark berry nose, slightly leathery undertone, fine spice, dried plum, ripe cherry, forest berries, complex. Shows itself on the palate with tightly woven tannin, great structure, salty, with pressure, spans a wide arc, long." Falstaff

"Deep crimson. Fragrant, sweet oak framing concentrated cherry and cassis fruit. Juicy dark-cherry and blackcurrant palate with a hint of red bell pepper and velvety, coating bitter-sweet tannins. International polish combined with Tuscan generosity of fruit." Jancis Robinson

"Very pretty aromas of berries, mushrooms and fresh herbs follow through to a full body with round, fine tannins and plenty of blackberry and blackcurrant flavors. Long and intense. The texture is beautiful in this wine." James Suckling

Rich, noble cuvée from the estate of the same name: aromas of red fruits, a light touch of roasted coffee, pepper and animal notes, an excellent tannin structure and a beautiful acidity give the "Bordeaux from Bolgheri" its exceptional originality and great elegance. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rich, dark ruby. Opened in the nose with notes of tobacco and some juniper, then a lot of dark berry fruit, deep. Full and creamy on the palate, opens with firm, pithy tannins, liquorice and wild berries, and a lot of sweetness in the final." Falstaff

"Despite its position at the southern end of the appellation Tenuta Argentiera is one of the highest estates in Bolgheri, with vineyards between 120 and 240 metres above sea level providing the grapes for this wine. The altitude increases the night and day average temperature differences, improving phenolic ripeness. The conversion from cordon to guyot training is increasing the freshness of the grapes. In 2017 the winery decided to avoid the production of Ventaglio, the 100% Cabernet Franc cru. Argentiera, however, is really good, confirming the usual grace of the wine with more density and power. On the nose a funky note of merde de poule follows clean, dark fruits with buttery and slightly leafy aromas, while the firm yet ripe palate ends with a dark chocolate character." Decanter

"This is a big and impressive wine. No denying. Full body with such depth and power. Crazy. An endless finish." James Suckling

The youngest scion of this exceptional winery is a pure Cabernet Franc: intense fruity bouquet of blackberry and blackcurrant, spicy notes such as black pepper, laurel and nutmeg, with elegant ethereal notes. Full, smooth and harmonious on the palate, the tannins silky-sweet, generous and long-lasting. The finale is reminiscent of a fresh sea breeze. Exquisite! SUPERIORE.DE

"Deep dark, rich ruby violet. Very compact nose with intense dark berry fruit, hints of blackberries and blueberries, underlaid with rich liquorice. Fine-grained tannin present on the palate, builds up in many layers, in the aftertaste full of liquorice and plums, blooms again after a longer aeration." Falstaff

"Dense, with black cherry, black currant, sweet spice and licorice flavors, this red is vibrant and harmonious. The tannins are thickset, yet civilized and integrated with the texture. Monolithic now, so be patient." Wine Spectator

"Exotic blueberry with inky concentration and graphite, espresso and gravel. Well-endowed but stylish tannins. Truly exceptional." James Suckling
