2020 Bolgheri Superiore Argentiera scallops and mussels – inJames Suckling 99 The nose shows perfect cabernet franc character with roses, flower stems, hints of herbs, fresh sage and lavender as well as black currants and black berries. Full to medium body with tannins that melt into the wine and are wonderfully integrated. You feel them but don't see them. They are very vertical and rather endless. A truly great cabernet franc from 1. 5 hectares in Bolgheri. 5,000 bottles made. Best after 2028.
