Tenuta Sette Ponti Oreno 2019 750 ml

Winemaker Notes
Oreno, wich takes its name from the river that crosses the estate and the hamiet where the farmhouse is found, is the estate’s 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’s idea of wine.
The wine is ruby red with violet reflections and spicy aromas of blackberry. On the palate, ripe berries lead to spices andsweet oak on a full body with firm tannic structure.

A delicious companion with full flavored meats, game, roasted and braised red meat.

Blend: 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot

Critical Acclaim
JS98James Suckling
Plenty of blackcurrant, blackberry and dark chocolate character with oyster shell and walnut undertones. Full body, extremely tight and structured with blueberry and light vanilla and coffee highlights. A gorgeous Oreno. Give this wine two or three years to come together.

The 2015 Oreno is fabulous. Rich, sumptuous and yet very much medium in body, the 2015 has it all going on. Silky tannins and juicy, pliant fruit add to the wine's considerable appeal. Succulent dark cherry, plum, chocolate, mocha and licorice infuse this racy, showy Tuscan red. The 2015 is one of the best vintages of Oreno I have tasted of late.
WS94Wine Spectator
A swath of tannins coats the finish. Black cherry, black currant and mineral flavors hold court. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Best from 2019 through 2032.
RP93Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2015 Oreno is Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. This nicely balanced effort shows rich color saturation and thick lines. The robust-blended red exhibits black fruit flavors followed by spice, tobacco and crushed granite or limestone. The bouquet is layered and deep. In terms of mouthfeel, the wine offers lots of density and power. It is firm and powerful and the tannins will require another few years of cellar aging before they soften. Oreno likes a warm vintage and it gets that in 2015.
