Linear and tight. Lovely length. Succulent and satisfying with a crisp finish. From organically grown grapes. Best after 2027.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94pts Jeb Dunnuck\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisplaying a bright, transparent red color and coming mostly from oceanic soils of the property, the 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino is highly appealing on opening, with notes of red cherries, cranberries, orange peel, fennel, and fresh herbs. It brings great energy and focus to the palate, with a medium-bodied frame, and it resonates with a refreshing spine of acidity, well-defined, angular tannins, and wonderful length. A fabulous wine, it will be worth it to stash a few bottles away. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93pts Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith more than 500 years of documented winemaking history (with a villa and cellars dating back to 1580), Argiano is one of the oldest and most important estates in Montalcino. The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino shows consistency and a velvety texture with blackberry and blackcurrant. There is good freshness here, and the wine is a rather lean in terms of mouthfeel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinery Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFamous for its bold, layered and long-lived red, Brunello di Montalcino, the town of Montalcino is about 70 miles south of Florence, and has a warmer and drier climate than that of its neighbor, Chianti. The Sangiovese grape is king here, as it is in Chianti, but Montalcino has its own clone called Brunello.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Brunello vineyards of Montalcino blanket the rolling hills surrounding the village and fan out at various elevations, creating the potential for Brunello wines expressing different styles. From the valleys, where deeper deposits of clay are found, come wines typically bolder, more concentrated and rich in opulent black fruit. The hillside vineyards produce wines more concentrated in red fruits and floral aromas; these sites reach up to over 1,600 feet and have shallow soils of rocks and shale.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johnson Brothers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53330914312556,"sku":"819098020001","price":79.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/3053\/files\/argiano-brunello-di-montalcino-2019-750ml-443093.jpg?v=1707258594","url":"https:\/\/redneckwinecompany.com\/products\/argiano-brunello-di-montalcino-2020-750ml-copy","provider":"Redneck Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
