2019 Camigliano Brunello Di Montalcino 750ML
2019 Camigliano Brunello Di Montalcino 750ML The 2019 has developed frank, clean, fragrant aromas, a strong acidic shoulder that guarantees a long aging and an intense and lively color. The wine goes well with dressed pork products, mature cheeses and fairly strong-flavored main dishes.
Argiano is part of the history of the Montalcino region and it’s one of the most prestigious and historical reality in the area. The name is thought to derive from the first settlements in Roman times – ‘Ara Janus’, referring to the god Janus. Another potential origin could be ‘the land of the River Orcia’ – known in ancient times as ‘Orgia’ and therefore Argiano.
The history of Argiano has a turning point in the 16th century with the decline of the Tolomei family in favor of the noble Pecci family from Sienna and with the construction of their magnificent villa between 1580 and 1596, perfect exempla of a 16th century noble residence. The name of the villa, Bell’Aria, was chosen when the Pecci decided to build it preserving the original center of the castle on the crest of the hill precisely because of the air quality.
