Tenuta di Arceno Arcanum 2013  - First Bottle

Reviews

96+ Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
The 2013 Arcanum is a blend of 73% Cabernet Franc with smaller parts Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Cabernet Franc element is obviously strongest, and you get steely notes of black fruit follow by wild sage and rosemary oil. This is a powerful and thickly layered red wine that pushes the boundaries of extract and intensity, especially for a Tuscan red wine. Off the top of my head, I can count maybe ten wines from the region that take on such a full-bodied and opulent approach. This wine should age forward for many years to come.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
What an astounding Super Tuscan offer today. Not only the incredible story behind it, but how about free shipping on 3 or more??!!  Read on -- but act quick...

Here’s the scoop -- this a MUST for serious Tuscan aficionados! The brilliant Arcanum 2013 is made by Pierre Seillan, a man who has received FIFTEEN 100-point scores from Wine Advocate for his work with the Sonoma kingpin VERITE. Five of those perfect wines were for his Cabernet Franc based wine Le Desir --- why is that important, you ask? Because it is a nearly identical blend to today’s Super Tuscan.

We miraculously obtained a few cases, and are offering it FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED. Free shipping on 3 or more!

This is not for the shy. “This is a powerful and thickly layered red wine that pushes the boundaries of extract and intensity, especially for a Tuscan red wine. Off the top of my head, I can count maybe ten wines from the region that take on such a full-bodied and opulent approach.”  -WA

This is a deeply concentrated, gorgeously complex, intense wine that is bound to knock your socks off. Master winemaker Pierre Seillan is the quiet genius behind many revered wines, and it’s worth getting to know more about the man who has made way too many 95-100 point wines to even bother counting! Here is a good Robb Report article about him (he’s pretty reclusive!). Rare and wonderful Tuscan rockstar red!

36 BOTTLES TO SELL. $299.85 per 3-PACK DELIVERED for a wine that rivals the very best Super Tuscans. Wow! While it lasts..!

About the Producer

Tenuta di Arceno is quintessential Tuscany, located in the southernmost corner of Chianti Classico between the cities of Siena and Florence in Castelnuovo Berardenga. The property covers 2,500 acres of rolling hills, lush green forests, ancient Cypress trees, sun-drenched fields, olive groves, vineyards and medieval stone castles. It’s not unusual to see wild boar roaming the property. The wines we produce are every bit as impressive as their origin. While clearly Tuscan in lineage, they possess a level of richness, concentration and character that is comparable to the world’s finest.


When wine entrepreneur Jess Jackson and Vigneron Pierre Seillan first visited Tenuta di Arceno in 1994, they immediately recognized the potential of this historic estate. Over the next two decades, our team replanted the vineyards into tiny micro-crus, updated the winery and elevated the viticulture and winemaking practices to first-class standards. Today, Tenuta di Arceno is widely considered one of the premier estates in the Chianti Classico region.
