Territory and wine style

The Solengo IGT Toscana 2020 Argiano is born in a vocated context, where the microclimate of Montalcino, altitude, and temperature fluctuations favor slow and complete ripening. The wine expresses the style of great Tuscan reds with an international approach, featuring a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, and Syrah. The IGT Toscana designation allows for a free and precise identity, where the winery's work aims to enhance concentration, balance, and evolutionary capacity. Aging in French barriques helps define a harmonious and well-refined profile, without overshadowing the fruit's character.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a dark, dense purple color, a prelude to a rich and enveloping bouquet. On the nose, notes of ripe black fruits, such as blackcurrant and blackberry, emerge alongside spicy nuances and a delicate hint of toasted oak. The palate is soft, velvety, and full, supported by an important structure and dense but well-integrated tannins. The fruity component remains the protagonist, while the finish lingers with good persistence and an overall sensation of balance, warmth, and depth.

Recommended pairings

This wine pairs effectively with flavorful and structured dishes. It is ideal with grilled red meats, braised dishes, fillets, roasts, and game birds or mammals, but it also expresses itself very well with pappardelle with ragù, rich lasagna, and aged cheeses. Its softness and tannic texture make it suitable for preparations with intense sauces and slow cooking, where the wine can accompany the dish without losing definition.

Serving temperature

The ideal serving temperature for Solengo IGT Toscana 2020 Argiano is between 16 and 18°C.
