97 POINTS FROM WINE ADVOCATE SAYING:
“What a beauty and what an incredible leap forward to excellence. The Tenuta Argentiera 2019 Bolgheri Superiore Argentiera shows depth and wide shoulders with soft plushness and impeccable fruit. The full-bodied wine is dialed up on all levels from perfumes, intensity, mouthfeel, texture and freshness. This bottle should hold past the 20-year mark.”
97 POINTS FROM JAMES SUCKLING SAYING:
“This is so nicely crafted, with tannins that are fine and integrated, creating such a fine, silky texture. It’s medium-bodied with fantastic length and a long, persistent finish. So drinkable now, but will be even better in two or three years”
95 POINTS FROM DECANTER MAGAZINE SAYING:
“In Argentiera 2019 there is more Merlot than usual, raised to 50% of the blend, supporting the perception of a good quality vintage in Bolgheri. The blend is then composed of 44% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Cabernet Franc. Graceful, restrained dark fruit aromas shine in the glass, with cassis, plum and chocolate. Despite its fruitiness, the Merlot is more leafy than ripe, very classic and elegant. On the palate the wine is thick and dusty yet ripe, with crisp acidity leading to a red fruit and clove finish.”
