For its \u201cBrunello\u201d Argiano selects grapes from its noblest vineyard plots, and ages their wine in two types of wood: for the first year in French barriques (225-litres) to reinforce the wine\u2019s inherent structure, and then for at least another one and half year in larger Slovenian oak casks (botti) to ensure the wine\u2019s concentrated fruit flavours are beginning to soften just as the wine is bottled. Argiano\u2019s winemaker feels the combination of fermenting ripe, concentrated grapes at carefully controlled temperatures, coupled with careful ageing in a selection of different oaks, produces red wines that retain the incredible ageing potential for which Brunello di Montalcino is famed, while keeping the wine flavours as vivid, accessible and appetising as possible.<\/p>\n<div>\n<h2>Description<\/h2>\n<p>Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Argiano Brunello di Montalcino 2021, where traditional craftsmanship meets modern winemaking.
