A magnificent piece of land of the Maremma that unites the countryside and the sea, suspended between woods and Mediterranean vegetation, stands Tenuta Argentiera. We are in the heart of the small but prestigious Doc Bolgheri, a terroir dedicated to great red wines, in the same area as the famous Super Tuscan. The name Argentiera bears an evocative meaning: it comes from the silver mines that once were in this area of the Alta Maremma, also rich in natural springs and healing waters. The Estate is the closest to the Tyrrhenian coast and at the same time the one that reaches the maximum altitude of the whole Bolgheri territory, reaching 200 meters above sea level: this duplicity makes it different from all the others and manages to create a microclimate with characteristics unique.
