Founded by Giuseppe Maria Sesti, an astronomer turned vintner, the estate reflects a deep connection to nature and tradition. The Sesti family revitalized the ancient Castello di Argiano in the 1970s and began producing wine in the 1990s, emphasizing biodynamic principles. They integrate lunar and cosmic rhythms into their vineyard management, honouring ancient agricultural practices. The estate produces exceptional wines characterized by elegance and balance, with a particular focus on their Brunello, aged in large Slavonian oak casks to preserve the purity of Sangiovese. Sesti wines are highly sought after for their craftsmanship and the philosophy of harmony they embody.

Tasting Notes

The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Phenomena 2018 from Sesti is a profound and deeply expressive wine, embodying the pinnacle of craftsmanship from this esteemed estate. The nose reveals an intricate bouquet of black cherry, plum, and dried fig, interwoven with layers of tobacco, leather, forest floor, and hints of clove and star anise. On the palate, it is full-bodied and impeccably structured, with fine-grained tannins and a vibrant acidity that provides both lift and balance to its rich, concentrated core. Flavours of dark fruit, savoury herbs, and a subtle balsamic note unfold gracefully, leading to a long, elegant finish with nuances of cedar and mineral earthiness. This Riserva showcases extraordinary depth and aging potential, promising even greater complexity with time in the cellar.
51 months ageing in barrel prior to bottling.
