This is more than a wine – it is the essence of a project born in 1999 with the vision of showing the world the finest that Bolgheri is capable of producing. From five selected vineyard sites between 80 and 220 metres above sea level – argentiera, Ginestre, Ventaglio, Porcarecce and Ceccosodo – a cuvée is created that has been a contemporary symbol of Italian winemaking since its debut vintage in 2003. Sourced from the best plots of the Tenuta, where sandy, calcareous and stony soils thrive between Mediterranean scrub and the salty breeze of the Tyrrhenian Sea, each grape embodies the unique terroir identity of this privileged location.

In the glass, it shines in deep ruby red, while the nose tells of crushed violets, mocha and cinnamon – a bouquet that unfolds into a core of red-toned fruit. On the palate, the true greatness is revealed: aromatic and weightless at the same time, it offers the typical Bolgheri opulence in a restrained, vibrant style of enormous appeal. Raspberries, blackcurrants, violets and lavender interweave with mineral notes to create a wine that shows more blue fruit than in the past – racy and delicate, with a medium to full body and tannins of enchanting harmony and precision. A vertical wine full of energy that develops the silky-smooth texture that makes Argentiera's flagship a living legend of Bolgheri. SUPERIORE.DE
