Sesti - Castello di Argiano
Giugi (as Giuseppe is known), Elisa and Sarah Sesti make delicious Sangiovese, Rosso and Brunello di Montalcino at their idyllic Tuscan estate at the southern end of the Montalcino plateau.
The Castello di Argiano estate encompasses a castle tower, a chapel, a villa and outbuildings within a privately-owned hamlet surrounded by vines, all with sweeping views over the countryside to 5,700 foot Monte Amiata. Giugi Sesti is a world authority on ancient astronomy hence the celestial designs on all their labels, along with viticultural and winemaking techniques which follow the phases of the moon. Whilst not being officially certified organic or bio-dynamic, the natural, time-honoured practices with minimal use of chemicals are important at Castello di Argiano, as with many of our producers. Of 102 ha at Castello di Argiano, only eight are planted with vines, with the remaining hectares being olive tree groves and woodland. According to Giugi, the aim is to make, "Premium, full-bodied wines with great colour and nose which no less important - are kind in their effect when consumed in quantity!"
