About Sette Ponti 2019 Oreno, Toscana IGT
The Tenuta Sette Ponti estate has 130 given over to winegrowing. The estate is located in a zone of considerable charm in Valdarno, in the heart of Tuscany. The owner of the Sette Ponti estate, Dr. Antonio Moretti's enjoyment of wine led him to ask his friend and customer for his grapes, Piero Antinori if Sette Ponti estate vineyards could produce great wines. Antinori thought they could. The estate has since been transformed through consultation with respected oenologist Carlo Ferrini and others to produce the finest grapes possible.
Oreno is a Tuscan Bordeaux blend of Merlot, Cabernet and Petit Verdot from the oldest vines on the property. At harvest the clusters are handpicked, sorted, destemmed. Maceration lasts 25 days and then the wine is placed in new, 225-liter Allier oak barriques for a period of eighteen months. A first blending of lots takes place when the wine is placed in barrique; a second at the first racking. The finished wine is bottled without filtration and rests one year prior to release.
James Suckling scored this 99 points saying "Wow. Fantastic aromas of blackberries, currants, minerals, violets and graphite. Full-bodied with firm, silky tannins that are incredibly polished and intense, yet ever so refined and integrated in the wine. It goes on for minutes. The is one of the best modern-day Orenos so far. Best in 2025 and onwards."
