Sesti, Tuscany, Italy
SANGIOVESE, Drinking 2022-2031"Sesti’s Riserva is lively, persistent and, quite simply, stunning. Scents of bergamot blossoms, orange peel and cardamom emerge slowly. Smooth, round and plummy on the entry, this gains tension as it clutches the palate with an irony grip. Depth and substance are articulated by persimmon, prickly pear and tamarind nuances."
97 points, Michaela Morris, Decanter
"Mid ruby with orange tinges. Very subdued nose with complex spice notes and a hint of gingerbread. Monolithic fruit palate piling it high, but multi-layered and complex at the same time. Polished tannins and ripe acidity on the finish. Very long. Still youthful but already captivating."
17.5++/20, Walter Speller MW, Jancisrobinson.com

Sesti are one of the most delightfully individual producers in Armit’s portfolio. Giuseppe Maria Sesti and his daughter Elisa hold just 13 hectares of vines in a unique micro-climate in southern Montalcino, Sesti produces elegant Sangiovese with a distinct floral note. Self-described as “eclectic by nature”, Giuseppe ran a Baroque Opera festival for thirty years while restoring the the medieval the Castello di Argiano, which features on their labels, and developing the vineyards. Having written no fewer than five books on astronomy, Giuseppe considers the influence of the moon indispensable to viticulture and Sesti makes wine according to biodynamic practices.
