Argiano Non Confunditur 2006

"The 2006 Non Confunditur is fat and super-ripe in its expression of dark plums, cherries, smoke, tar, herbs and licorice. It offers notable harmony and best of all, is a terrific value. Drink this fat, silky-textured red over the next few years. It could be enjoyed either at the table or on its own.

Anticipated maturity: 2008-2016. Non Confuditur is a blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot and 20% Syrah aged for 12 months in used French oak barrels and larger casks. Argiano, located in Sant-Angelo in Colle, seems to be going through a particularly distinguished period as the wines have never been better." - Robert Parker
