Winemaker Notes
Argirio has a lively ruby red color. On the nose, notes of plum jam and morello cherry in alcohol supported by a light minerality. The finish gives delicate nuances of black pepper, licorice and chocolate. On the palate it is powerful and sumptuous with elegant tannins and a pleasant mineral and balsamic note.

Lots of ripe fruit with dried berries, black olives and lavender. Tar, too. Full-bodied, chewy and flavorful. Sandalwood and walnut notes. This is very concentrated and rich.

Legendary in Italy for its Renaissance art and striking landscape, Tuscany is also home to many of the country’s best red wines. Sangiovese reigns supreme here, as either the single varietal, or a dominant player, in almost all of Tuscany’s best.
A remarkable Chianti, named for its region of origin, will have a bright acidity, supple tannins and plenty of cherry fruit character. From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
