Tenuta Sette Ponti Orma – Toscana IGT – Red – 2017 – 6000 ml:

 

The Footprint of Excellence: Orma, Bolgheri’s Premier Super Tuscan

Born in the heart of the legendary Via Bolgherese, nestled between the iconic estates of Ornellaia and Sassicaia, Orma (meaning “footprint” in Italian) is the ultimate expression of an exceptional terroir. This Super Tuscan is Antonio Moretti Cuseri’s ambition to leave an indelible mark on the global wine scene. Crafted from a classic Bordeaux blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc, it embodies the perfect fusion of Mediterranean power and aristocratic Bordeaux finesse.

Tasting Notes

• Color: Deep, intense ruby with garnet reflections.
• Nose: Powerful and sophisticated, it opens with intense aromas of ripe dark fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), evolving into complex notes of tobacco, cedar, licorice, and a subtle, balsamic touch of eucalyptus. The French oak is seamlessly integrated.
• Palate: Dense, concentrated, and full-bodied, delivering a velvety, opulent texture. The tannins are firm yet remarkably silky, beautifully framing the concentrated fruit. The vibrant acidity ensures a very long, elegant finish and guarantees exceptional aging potential.

Pairing & Serving Advice

This wine demands a dish of equal stature. Serve at 64°F (18°C) after decanting for at least two hours to fully appreciate its complexity.

• Pairings: Tomahawk Steak (Grilled), Beef Tenderloin with Red Wine Reduction, Aged Hard Cheeses.
