Overview

The Argiano 2016 Brunello di Montalcino shows a lovely transparency to its appearance and follows with lifted red fruit aromas, cassis, wild cherry and blue flower. It is made with a simple approach, fermented in cement tank and aged slowly in oak, and the fruit comes from a 22-hectare site with limestone marl soils. It delivers a lightness and a weightlessness that is not often ascribed to this vintage. No worries, the power of 2016 comes through at the very end in terms of tannins and structure. This ample release of 115,000 bottles will be ready to drink after 2023 when the wine has had time to open and flesh out.

The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino is dark, dusty and floral, with hints of crushed stone and violet pastille embellishing black cherries. This is energetic and silky-smooth, with cooling minerality and juicy acidity, casting masses of tart wild berry fruits across a core of saline minerals. It leaves a staining of primary concentration, still so young, and grippy tannins that coat the entire palate, finishing long and spicy. - By Eric Guido, November 2023
