Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nOreno, wich takes its name from the river that crosses the estate and the hamiet where the farmhouse is found, is the estate\u2019s flagship wine. Fruit of the blend of Merlot structure and Cabernet Sauvignon class, brought together with the elegance of Petit Verdot, it expresses best the potential of the territory and the Moretti Cuseri family\u2019s idea of wine.\r\nRuby red with violet hues. Intense and broad aromatics, where notes of succulent red fruits initially emerge and then give way to spicy characters of licorice and roasted coffee. Powerful and structured, with velvety tannins in balance with a vibrant, crisp character. Finish of remarkable length and savoriness.\r\nFOOD Pairing - A delicious companion with full flavored meats and roasts.\r\nJames Suckling 98 Points\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout\u00a0 Tenuta Sette Ponti\r\nTenuta Sette Ponti lies on historic land in the heart of the Chianti zone at the end of the Via del Monte, known locally as the Via dei Sette Ponti, in a beautiful hidden valley. Named for the seven medieval bridges crossing the Arno River on the road from Arezzo to Florence\u2014one of which, the Ponte Buriano, is perceptible in the right far background of Leonardo DaVinci's Mona Lisa\u2014the estate has a storied history. But it has been the dedication and savvy of luxury goods entrepreneur Antonio Moretti that has transformed the 750-acre estate into a multifaceted farm property that is today one of Tuscany\u2019s most innovative, quality-driven producers of world-class Super Tuscans.\r\nTenuta Sette Ponti's first release was the 1998 vintage Crognolo, named after a wild bush, Cornus, which grows on the estate. The estate's second release, Oreno, is named after a small river running through the estate. |
