Sette Ponti Oreno 2023

Oreno is Tenuta Sette Ponti’s signature Super Tuscan, a polished blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot from the hills near Castiglion Fibocchi in Tuscany. Created in 1998 as the estate’s first historic wine, it takes its name from the stream that runs through the property and is known for its depth, supple texture and poised structure.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby in appearance, Oreno opens with an expressive bouquet of red berries, blackcurrant and blackberry, layered with chocolate and balsamic notes. On the palate, ripe fruit meets spice and a hint of pipe tobacco, supported by well-integrated tannins and a long, memorable finish.

Production
The grapes come from Vigna di Pallino, where calcareous clay soils rich in stones and coarse material contribute to the wine’s depth and elegance. The estate describes its hillside vineyards as organically farmed, using a short-spur cordon training system. Fermentation with gentle pump-overs lasts around 25 days, followed by a further period of skin maceration. The wine matures for 18 months in French oak barrels, then spends 12 months in bottle before release. Specific harvesting methods for the 2023 vintage are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C, with a little time in the glass or a decant of about an hour to let its aromas unfold. Its generous fruit and structured tannins pair well with grilled or slow-roasted red meats, game, rich ragù and mature hard cheeses.

Producer
Tenuta Sette Ponti is based in Tuscany, on an estate that once served as a residence of the House of Savoy. Oreno, named after the stream crossing the property, was created in 1998 by Antonio Moretti Cuseri and remains the estate’s landmark wine. It has earned significant international recognition, including being named Italy’s best wine at the 2017 Best Italian Wine Awards; the supplied description also cites 99-point scores from James Suckling and Decanter.
