Argiano

Producer: Argiano
Wine: Argiano Solengo 2001
Region: Tuscany Country: Italy
Grape: Bordeaux Blend
Tasting notes: 95 points, Wine Spectator October 2003 Still one of the top wines of the region. Bold and exotic, with a muscular style. Fullbodied, with fantastic, velvety tannins and a long, opulent finish. Got to love this wild wine. Best after 2007. 3,750 cases made. This unique red wine is a rather newly expression of Argiano's winegrowing potential compared to its Sangiovese-based reds. ‘Solengo’, a Tuscan word meaning 'lone wild boar', marries Tuscan soil with French grapes: Syrah, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Solengo is produced from vineyards which are 12 to 18 years old. It is the result of a team effort between Adriano Bambagioni, Argiano’s long’serving cellarmaster and Hans Vinding-Diers, a master winemaker and blender with worldwide experience. While keen to retain Solengo’s unique style the new team is also endowing Solengo with even greater levels of finesse, balance and depth.

Producer: Argiano
Wine: Argiano Suolo 2000
Region: Tuscany Country: Italy
Grape: Sangiovese
Tasting notes: Suolo has a dark ruby color, with its typical “nose” of complex notes of dark fruits that all fans of it will easily recognise from vintage to vintage. With its beautiful texture, Suolo is smooth and silky, overall very balanced, dark and mysterious, with superbly well-integrated oak. The aftertaste is long-lasting with hints of balsam and earth, and lingering fruit. It exhibits beautifully delineated, perfumed red fruits, flowers, spices, licorice, smoke and earthiness in a gorgeously pure, vibrant expression of Sangiovese that bursts onto the palate. Suolo shows important ageing potential, with an impressive capital of tannins and acidity. A wine with outstanding potential to mature for 10 to 15 years… for those who will be patient enough to wait.
