Characteristics and tasting advice for Tenuta Sette Ponti's Oreno 2022
Tasting
This vintage captivates with its concentration, aromatic structure, and smooth touch, supported by a beautiful freshness.
A lively and creamy Tuscan wine
The property
Located on the lands of Sangiovese in Chianti, the Tenuta Sette Ponti charms visitors with both its timeless Tuscan landscapes and its terroir that gives birth to great wines.
This estate, whose name echoes the seven bridges connecting the banks of the Arno, between Florence and Arezzo, opened a new chapter in its history in the 1950s following the acquisition of 50 hectares by the Moretti Cuseri family.
Tenuta Sette Ponti produces wines recognised for their refinement and elegance, considered among the great Italian wines.
The vineyard
Tenuta Sette Ponti oversees a terroir of over 300 hectares, 54 of which are vineyards. This exceptional vineyard is planted on a mosaic of soils whose different topologies and altitudes make the uniqueness of the estate.
The wine
Oreno 2022 from Tenuta Sette Ponti is an IGT Toscana wine from a vineyard located in the heart of Tuscany, with vines aged 20 to 30 years on average (merlot, cabernet sauvignon, petit verdot) and 7 years for the cabernet franc used for the first time from this vintage.
The vintage
A mild and dry early winter was later offset by cool and wet conditions slowing down the vegetative cycle until the end of May. The summer, hot and intense with a single rainy episode in June, provided an ideal microclimate ensuring optimal ripening of the berries.
Vinification and ageing
Sorting and destemming of the berries before a light pressing. Gravity vatting. Fermentation and maceration of a total duration exceeding 20 days, accompanied by 2 to 3 pump-overs per day. Delicate extraction. Racking then malolactic fermentation in barrels before ageing in French oak barrels for about 18 months (20% new barrels, 80% second wines)
Blend
Merlot (45%), cabernet sauvignon (40%), cabernet franc (10%) and petit verdot (5%).
