Argiano Solengo IGT 1.5L MAGNUM 2021

Argiano Solengo IGT is a Super Tuscan from Montalcino, named after the solitary wild boar that roams the Tuscan hills.

Solengo was created in the mid 1990s, when Argiano set out to make a wine from international varieties on a property known above all for Brunello, working at the time with the consultant Giacomo Tachis, the oenologist behind Sassicaia and Tignanello. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Merlot are grown alongside Sangiovese on the estate's south west facing slopes near Sant'Angelo in Colle, and the parcels are fermented separately before blending. Ageing takes place in French oak. The wine is bottled as Toscana IGT because its varieties fall outside the Brunello rules, the same route taken by most of Tuscany's ambitious international blends.

Suits roast and grilled red meats, game birds and mature cheeses; decant, serve at around 17 to 18 degrees, and cellar for ten years or more.
