The Argentiera DOC Bolgheri Superiore, draws its strength and uniqueness from the magnificent territory in which it’s generated. The grapes come from the estate’s best vineyards of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. It is a wine with a rich and silky complexity. A long maturation in French oak barrels, the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon and the unique terroir of Tenuta Argentiera make this wine one of the greatest expressions in the Bolgheri area.

Poggio Antico’s first Super Tuscan, named after one of the three properties which gave life to the winery. 50% Sangiovese and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, it reveals balanced power and elegance.

The wine has a beautiful ruby red color, with aromas of ripe cherries, blackberries, sweet spices, and earth. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, with a smooth, fruity taste that is balanced by a long, dry finish. The flavors are reminiscent of undergrowth, with an underlying hint of mentriendhol that adds complexity to the wine. The tannins are well-integrated and provide a velvety texture, while the acidity is fresh and lively, making this wine a true pleasure to drink and share.

Cantina Giuliano is one of Europe's only fully Kosher wineries and farm to table restaurants. This wine takes roots on the fascinating hills of Tuscany. This powerful, complex and rich Super Tuscan was aged in French Oak barrels for 18 months. It is a modern expression of a histirical Terroir.

This dessert wine from Monsanto is impressive. It is burnt orange colored and opens with a sweet rum cake like bouquet. It is full bodied, slightly sweet, and viscous. The flavor profile is a tasty fig, brown sugar and mild rum blend. I also detected hints of apricot, milk chocolate, and oak that added to its complexity. The finish remains sweet and displays controlled heat for this style of wine. This dessert wine would be a perfect match for pecan pie and a good way to finish off an evening.

Typically floral, Lemartine is opulent, intense, and fleshy this wine is loaded with cassis, blackberry compote, blueberry jam and perfumed with candied violets. Delicious with hard cheeses, but simply sublime with a fine cigar or a great book.
