Argiano Masterclass

We are delighted to invite you to a very special evening dedicated to Argiano, one of the historic estates of Montalcino.

On September 15, join us for an intimate Argiano Masterclass featuring five exceptional wines, personally presented by Margherita Mascagni, Commercial Director of Argiano.

This is a rare opportunity to taste through the different expressions of this celebrated Tuscan estate, from the freshness and immediate pleasure of Rosso di Montalcino to the depth of Brunello, the extraordinary single-vineyard Vigna del Suolo, and the iconic Super Tuscan Solengo.

$95++ per person – September 15th – 6 pm to 7.30 pm

THE STORY OF ARGIANO

 

With roots dating back centuries, Argiano is one of Montalcino’s historic estates. Its magnificent Renaissance villa was built in the late 1500s, and in 1967 Argiano became a founding member of the Brunello di Montalcino Consortium. The estate later helped push the boundaries of Tuscan winemaking with Solengo, created in collaboration with legendary winemaker Giacomo Tachis. Today, Argiano combines this extraordinary heritage with organic farming, sustainability and a renewed focus on its remarkable vineyards, including Vigna del Suolo, its prized single-vineyard Brunello. In 2023, Wine Spectator named Argiano Brunello di Montalcino 2018 the #1 Wine of the Year.
