A full-bodied, noble cuvée from the vineyard of the same name: aromas of red fruits, a light hint of roasted coffee, juniper, pepper and animal notes, an excellent tannin structure and a beautiful acidity give this "Bordeaux from Bolgheri" its exceptional independence and great elegance. SUPERIORE.DE

"Selection of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc from the best sites of the estate: Powerful nose with notes of dark fruits, pepper and cocoa; supple yet full-bodied evolution, the fine-meshed tannins and the acidity in harmony, great length." Vinum

"Powerfully spicy bouquet with ethereal balsamic notes and ripe dark berry fruit with cedar and tobacco notes. Immensely juicy yet nuanced on the palate, carried by a mineral-spicy vein, dense style with balsamic iron-like notes on the spicy-creamy final." Weinwisser

"Noble ruby red, darkly luminous. Rich and inviting nose, opens with fine spicy notes, some sandalwood and cardamom, then rich forest fruit and ripe raspberry, after Amarena cherry in the finish. On the palate with noble spice and great melting, spreads balanced over the tongue, with tight tannin, very precise, shows finesse and elegance, with fine pressure on the palate, long finish." Falstaff

"A sophisticated red, exhibiting black currant, black cherry, olive and wild rosemary flavors. Turns more compact as this plays out on the long finish. Should relax in a year or two." Wine Spectator

"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." Decanter

"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. Try after 2024." James Suckling

"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." Wine Advocate
