ORENO 2021 IGT Toscana |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
SETTE PONTI |
There have been 20 previous Vintages releases of Oreno dating back to December 2010 and this 2021 is one of the best so far. This blend of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot was aged for 18 months in small barrels. Extremely deep intense purple- ruby colour. The nose is very intense, slightly earthy and gently cedary with mineral-tinged, bright, ripe, plum-cherry-cassis fruit. Dry, medium-full to full bodied, dense and well structured with slightly spicy, intense, ripe, bright, still youthful, plum-cherry-cassis fruit flavours along with a lingering, harmonious, rich, mouthfilling finish. It has 15% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L130323 on the back label. Is this the ultimate steak red - stay tuned. |

TASTING NOTE: Blackcurrants and black cherries with lovely flowers on the nose. Medium-bodied with ultra fine tannins that give focus and tension to the wine. Pretty and poised. A little shy now. From organically grown grapes. Drink after 2027 [into mid-to-late 2030s]. Score - 98 (jamessuckling.com, Aug. 7, 2023) |
