Deep ruby red in color. It is medium-bodied with a good concentration on the mid-palate. Elegant in the mouth, it is well balanced with tempting flavors of red berries, violets, menthol and earthiness. A generous wine with smooth, velvety tannins that will satisfy all Sangiovese lovers. Wine Advocate: Larner "Argiano's 2013 Rosso di Montalcino is a plump and cheerful red wine with bold cherry matched by dusty mineral tones. It offers a noticeable level of sweetness in the mouth, but that fruity softness is matched by fresh fruit flavors and the natural acidity you get with Sangiovese. It would be great to pair this wine with a slightly sweet dish such as simple pasta topped with fresh tomato sauce. "Argiano is one of the landmark estates of the Sant'Angelo in Colle subzone in the southern part of the appellation. A double line of perfectly aligned cypress trees marks the road that leads to this iconic Tuscan property. Argiano has had its share of ups and downs in recent years and was purchased by foreign investors a few years back. The wine style has remained the same and Argiano continues to make some of the best Brunello on the market today. Now-2018"
