"sesti is one of the most delicious individual producers in armit’s portfolio. these wines are produced by giuseppe maria sesti and his daughter elisa from only 13 hectares of vines surrounding the castello di argiano, which appears on their labels. located in a unique micro-climate in the southern part of montalcino, surrounded by forests and on soils of olayered ocean sediments, sesti produces elegant sangiovese with a distinct floral note. calling himself «eclectic by nature», giuseppe organized a festival of baroque opera for thirty years, while restoring the castle and developing the vineyards. he devoted himself to the study of astronomy, a subject on which he published no less than five books, and considers the influence of the moon indispensable to viticulture. the 2011 brunello di montalcino riserva phenomena boats bigger bones and a more voluptuous style. the wine sees a whopping 51 months in oak and has had ample time to put on weight, structure and fleshiness as a result. blackberry and cherry confit rise from the bouquet with exotic spice and tobacco in tow. thankfully, the wine is not too heavy or thick. but it is reflective of the warm vintage for sure with soft tannins and dark fruit flavors.
