Description: The Argiano estate dates back to ancient Rome. One of the most prestigious and traditional wine estates whom contributed to the birth of the Brunello Consortium.
In 1992, the assets of Argiano passed into the hands of Countess Noemi Marone Cinzano, who introduced important innovations into the winery’s management. She began working with internationally acclaimed oenologist Giacomo Tachis, a partnership led to the birth of the Supertuscan Solengo.
The 2009 vintage is spectacular and seamlessly put together. This is a full-bodied wine without the heavy viscosity. The tannins are polished and adds to the complex layers of wonderful fruit and earth. Deep, dark purple in color with aromas of licorice root, currants, and violets in soil. The palate exhibits tar, black olives, and licorice root upfront. As the wine travels to the mid-palate we begin to discover blueberry fruit, sweet toasted vanilla bean, and dried black trumpet mushrooms. This wine will continue to get better as it gets closer to the year 2025.
