Argiano
Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, Italy
2018 vintage. Last tasted 4.26.24 (9.3). Tasted alongside the 2019 vintage (9.4). This didn't suck. Medium-heavy bod. Nice nose but it was the back end complexities and fireworks that performed the magic here. Sure, you can age it for a spell and it'll jump through all the hoops. Drinking beautifully now and for the foreseeable future. 11.22.24.

Probably the best Brunellp I’ve ever had. Medium bodied. Incredibly balanced. Mineral. Fruit. Amazing.

Aug 11th, 20242018 vintage. Decanted and tasted after two hours. Medium-heavy body. Juicy introduction with a firm, tannic handshake directly thereafter. Nice first impression of the 2018 tasting now but 3-5 years from now likely leads to a better opinion. 4.26.24.

️ Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy
✔️ 산지오베제 100%
✔️ 페일-미디엄 가넷 컬러
✔️ 오픈하자마자 향이 퍼지는건 아닌데, 그렇다고 엄청 닫혔다는 느낌이 들지는 않아서 어라 이상하다 싶었음
✔️ 코 끝에는 바닐라•오크•가죽 향과 레드베리 향이 섞여서 느껴지는데, 입 안에서는 향이 많이 느껴지지 않았음... 약한 피니쉬!
✔️ 오픈하고 1시간 정도 지나니까 산미가 엄청 올라오고 과실향이 확 사라져서 아쉬웠음
✔️ 그래도 가격대가 저렴하진 않은 와인이라 마시기 나쁘진 않았지만, 이 가격대라면 더 맛있는 와인들이 많을 것 같다는 생각이 들었음
+ 이게 와인스펙테이터 1위라고...? 믿을 수 없음

The non reserva Brunello from Argiano is quite beautiful. 2018 was not as hot as 2017. This comes through with flavours on the palate. It’s elegant, yet complex. Dark/red fruits of cherries, raspberries, blueberries, hints of fresh earth and white pepper. Soft tannin that lingers for a long finish. Can be stored for another 15-20 years.
