Argiolas - Costera 2005

About the winery

it was only with Antonio Argiolas, today 97 years old, that a new way of running the business began. A man of great enthusiasm and long experience in viticulture, he bought new estates, not only vineyards but also olive groves, with the aim to set up a new, modern farm. He succeeded.At the end of the 70's, Franco and Giuseppe Argiolas, the two sons of Antonio, made a courageous choice: by means of big investments, they effected gradual changes and involved the business in a stage of reorganization of all aspects, from the vineyards to technological innovation in the cellars. For their staff, they chose one of Italy's leading oenologists, Giacomo Tachis, who joined its forces with oenologist Mariano Murru.Now three generations of our family are present together: the patriarch Antonio, his two sons and his grandchildren.

2004

Arnaud Steve      Portugal   Already showing signs of age, with leather, earth and dust at bottle opening. After some decanting the wine offers fruitier aromas, like raspberry, but still with leather in the forefront. Pretty agreable body, with freshness and round tanins, the wine requires some care with food pairing - I'd go for a Beef Wellington Tasting date : 01 Sep 2011 Maturity : Mature Lists: Wine Classified in a list 1 year ago
