Pouring forth from a heavy glass bottle, the Tenuta Sette Ponti 2019 Valdarno di Sopra Vigna dell’Impero is 100% Sangiovese aged in large oak barrels for 24 months before going into bottle for 12 months. Fruit comes from a three-hectare vineyard that is entirely terraced by hand and surrounded by forests. The wine shows medium-dark concentration with aromas of dark cherry, dried herb and earth. You also get toasted spice, and ultimately, this vintage is ready to drink now (and for not that much longer) with an open-knit, immediate personality.

The organic Tenuta Sette Ponti 2020 Sette is all Merlot from a vintage that saw rain toward the end of the season. The fruit is sourced from seven separate parcels and was harvested in early September with a careful berry selection process. The results are thick and sticky with blackberry preserves, spice, cinnamon and exotic spice. The wine offers a concentrated, full-bodied mouthfeel with a powerful 15% alcohol content. It’s big and generous, almost to a fault.

The organic Tenuta Sette Ponti 2021 Crognolo is a mid-entry blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Merlot that goes into oak for up to 14 months. Fruit is harvested from a historic clone of Sangiovese found on this estate. The wine shows dark concentration, certainly more than you’d expect from Sangiovese, with lots of cherry, spice and blue flower that ties directly into the Merlot. It offers a medium to full-bodied texture with fine, chalky tannins.

A blend of organic 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot (aged in barrique for 16 months), the 2021 Oreno comes in a heavy glass bottle and reveals richly concentrated aromas to match. You get black fruit, toasted barbecue spice, mahogany and smoke. There are pronounced herbal notes with grilled sage and rosemary. This wine definitely embraces a full-bodied, old-school style that is heavily influenced by Bordeaux.

Black cherries, blackberries, earth, dark chocolate and a hint of orange peel and anise on the nose open onto a lush and indulgent palate, but with pepper and an almost bracing fresh mintinness at the back that creates balance and tension. Tannins are round but dense and chewy—very satisfyin
