INFO: Argiano’s history dates back to 1580, when the Pecci family of Siena began the construction of a magnificent villa, complete with vast cellars. In 1967, Argiano, which is the south west quarter of the Brunello appellation, was one of the founder members of the Consorzio di Brunello.In 2013, André Esteves, a Brazilian financier, bought Argiano. Since then, he has provided funds for a massive updating of the entire
estate. New cellars have been built, the villa is undergoing an extensive renovation programme and the vineyards have been mapped into six separate zones by the acclaimed Chilean terroir consultant, Pedro Parra. In consequence of the switch to organic methods, the bee population has soared throughout the estate.
The wines are vilified in stainless steel with a two week maceration and aged for between 4 - 6 months in large Slavonian oak bottes
