Tenuta, Argentiera Bolgheri Superiore 2021

Tenuta Argentiera Bolgheri Superiore 2021 comes from one of Tuscany’s most celebrated coastal wine zones, where proximity to the sea and high-altitude vineyards help shape wines of exceptional precision and elegance. The estate takes its name from the Italian word for silver, a nod to the area’s historic silver mines, and today it stands among the respected producers of Bolgheri’s premium red wines.

Tasting Notes
This wine is expected to show a deep, concentrated colour with the polished intensity typical of top Bolgheri reds. On the nose, you can expect ripe dark fruit, Mediterranean herbs, and subtle savoury notes, while the palate should be structured, refined, and layered, with the freshness that coastal vineyards naturally bring. Bolgheri Superiore wines are built for ageing, and this 2021 vintage should have the balance and backbone to develop beautifully over time. With cellaring, the fruit will likely integrate further, revealing more complexity, finesse, and tertiary notes.

Production
Argentiera’s vineyards are located close to the sea and at some of the highest elevations in the Bolgheri area, giving the grapes excellent exposure, cooling breezes, and ideal ripening conditions. This combination of coastal influence and altitude is key to the estate’s style, producing grapes with concentration, freshness, and strong aromatic definition. The available information does not provide details on harvesting methods or vinification, so these aspects are left unspecified.

Food & Serving
This is a natural match for rich dishes such as grilled beef, lamb, roast game, and slow-cooked Tuscan-style meats. It also pairs well with mature hard cheeses and earthy mushroom-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting is recommended to allow the wine to open fully and show its best texture and complexity.

Producer
Argentiera is owned by brothers Corrado and Marcello Fratini together with Piero Antinori, one of the most influential names in Italian wine. The estate is part of Bolgheri, a region that has earned worldwide acclaim for producing some of Italy’s most prestigious and expensive wines, including Sassicaia, Ornellaia, and Guado al Tasso. Argentiera has built its reputation on its exceptional vineyard sites and its strong position within this elite coastal terroir.
