Score 96/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Aug 2013

The 2010 Solengo shows the pedigree of this great vintage. Violets, tar, smoke, licorice and plums burst from the glass. Vibrantly nuanced and beautifully articulated, the 2010 impresses for its striking balance and refined, sophisticated personality. This is one of the very best Solengos I can remember tasting. The style is rich and highly expressive, but with no excess weight. In 2010, Solengo is 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Petit Verdot, 20% Merlot and 10% Syrah.

Argiano was recently sold to a group of Brazilian investors. I am curious to see how things develop, as this is one of the most highly regarded properties in Montalcino in terms of its potential.
